so much in the name of religion!!!

the da vinci code is in news again...in the state of andhra pradesh, where i live...
reason....the screening was banned conjointly with two other states, just an evening b4 its release...
initial uproar and then the matter fizzled out..
now again, the honorable high court passed a ruling that such a ban was unjustified and directed the government to compensate the distributors...it also called for the release of the movie...
all said and done...one makes the other mars...
the movie was to be screened yesterday but was apparently not...reason being a group of self acclaimed guardians of christianity resenting such release.out with the same old rationale that it affects their religious sentiments...
they staged a protest,resorted to vandalism..damaged some furniture and glass panes at the counter...
all this in the name of religion...
it compels me to wonder what goes on in their mind when they resort to such stupidity... does any religion encourage violence of any kind.[oops violence is too harsh a term in this context...lets call it unrest, public nuisance, craziness..nething...]
wat baffles me the most is that when the movie was created and brought out by an all christian crew, why is it that these so called fundamentalists object...
are they competing against the christians all over the world for the most devout christian award !?!?!?!
wat is, after all ,wrong with all these people who protest in the name of religion..to me its jus an eyewash...a gimmick to attract attention..an attempt to bask in limelight...
little do they realise that in the end, they only make a royal fool o themselves~~~

PS before i end up startin another crusade here...im not targetting neone religion in particular...all u narrow minded religious fanatics pls keep ur views to urselves :)
