Now, amid a wave of criticism from some Christian groups about its loose interpretation of a sacred script, the Paramount studio has taken the unusual step of issuing an "explanatory message" to accompany marketing material.

haha now the Christians are up in arms

Oh.. the Christians are critical. Aren't they that New Testament lot?

Why would an Athiest think it's okay to make a story from the Old Testament into a film, and then say "it isn't religious"? It's the most idiotic of statements. If you wanted to make a film like the Noah's Ark story, why not do that, and call it something else?

It really is.

It's almost like saying Jesus of Nazareth has nothing to do with Christianity.
