Big Hoohaa Over Nothing.
CRAPOLAAA!!!
That's what I got to say about the movie Da Vinci Code. I went to see the movie last night after all the hype, and I was so disappointed. I cant comprehend the extent of how fictional the movie was, and yet there were discussions going around to contemplate the possibility of the idea being true. I'm wondering why aren't the Christians revolting, at least to yell some dissatisfaction. Nothing...zilch...elek! Are there no die hard Christians around or is the idea of defending one's religion and faith is too geeky or soooo in the past?
Maybe I'm speaking from a Muslim's perspective, where we dont tolerate any attempt to taint our sacred religion. The effort to preserve Islam as the only true religion with all the idea, facts, principles and guidelines intact, could reliably be accepted since the Prophet Muhammad's time. It has come a long way since then, but we believe that it has persevered through the test of time. So, the saying that one would die for the religion is not so hard to grasp when something so sacred as a religion should be protected. Hence, the disappointment of the Pope when no Christian stood up to defend their religion.
My simple explanation for all this is that we are without a doubt coming towards the end of time, and at this age, if you dont hold dear to something like a spiritual belief system, you will not be able to survive the struggle against good and evil. Good and evil comes in such complicated form, deceiving those who want to be deceived. So, if you dont have anything strong to hold on to, forget it, you'll be swept of your feet into total chaos and oblivion.
I guess this is what the people behind all this effort to trash and taint one's believe system to its core foundation is hoping will happen. If a nation's faith is burnt to dust, the downfall is near. As always, I believe it's the conspiracy theory of the so called "choosen one"!!! Any rebuttal?
Ok la, enuf of this heavy discussion...lets get into business......so, have you tasted good cheesecake lately? I was blessed last thursday when i was attending a seminar conducted by Novell (IT Solution Company) at the Sime Darby Convention Centre at Bukit Kiara....fuhhh!!! The cheesecake was OUT OF THIS WORLD!! I'm not kidding.....and i have tasted a whole lot of cheesecake and I can vouch that this was indeed the best. It was made into 2 layer cheesecake with a thin layer of cake in the middle. The top of the cake was sprinkled with something crunchy...nuts or chocolate flakes..I cant tell, too busy pushing it down my throat. It was not too sweet or too muak....but just nice. I could finish the whole tray if I wasnt with my boss....
Ok, for all the drooling folks....adios amigos!!

When was the last time you listen to the news/ read papers? Ada la people rebutting the whole Da Vinci movie & book. Some part of the world, this movie kena ban. Even ada keluar buku by the Christian churches about 'The truth behind Da Vinci Code' and also the truth about the 'Last Supper'.
Anyway, the movie tak portray most of the exciting elements in the book. Reading is much better than watching. The movie kindda boring, that I dozed off sekejap.
So X-Men anyone???? hahahahaha

Actually you have to read the book. The movie doesn't do justice to the book. It wasn't so much abt the daughter of jesus, that is obviously bullshit. It was more to suggest that man manipulated the religion into what the Church can use to control its people (believers). If so much was done to conceal simple truth in Christianity, imagine what big truth was actually supressed by the church for its own survival. Read the book and tapis sendirilah what makes sense and what doesn't. Imagine all the riches that the Vatican has, from Da Vinci paintings to Sculptures of David, with all that $$$, why do they still need donation to the church and why cant they get rid of world poverty? The pope does nothing except for giving speeches in multi languages and travel. Btw, XMEN was better...
