Local newspapers website shows Dr. Ivins defending the movie 'The Da Vinci Code'

http://www.fredericknewspost.com/sections/news/display.htm?StoryID=78498

Search warrants, among the documents unsealed Wednesday by the U.S. District Court, listed email accounts Ivins had created, including goldenphoenix111@hotmail.com, kingbadger7@aol.com and jimmyflathead@yahoo.com.

At least one commenter, kingbadger7@aol.com, posted comments on the News-Post's website.

...

After reading an article written about the movie The Da Vinci Code after its release in May 2006, kingbadger7@aol.com commented:

- "Just as 'Ben Hur' and 'Touched by an Angel' were fictional, so The Da Vinci Code is fictional. It's not theology or history, it's a fictional suspense thriller. We were taught in gradeschool that Jesus was 'a man like us in all ways but sin.' So Jesus being fictionally given a wife would make him sinful? Please!"

- "I just finished watching the first showing of The Da Vinci Code at the Westview theaters. It was a good, fast-paced, suspenseful movie. I recommend it, but people should read the book first, so that they can follow it more easily. (It moves VERY fast.) I didn't see any protesters, thank goodness."

- "I saw it also, Erika, and I enjoyed it thoroughly. People forget that the movie and the book are FICTION. The Da Vinci Codes's supposed blasphemy is that Jesus was a Jewish man with a Jewish wife and she bore him a child. Did Jesus sweat? Did he have cavities or get sick? Did he 'go to the bathroom?' We were taught that he was (a) person like us in all ways but sin, so having sexual relations with one's spouse doesn't seem sinful."
