Reasons to lose hope.

I'm starting to feel like Andy Rooney (aka grumpy old man). Everything I see or read pisses me off. I don't understand why the whole world decided to get a collective lobotomy. Where has logic gone? That isn't meant as a rhetorical question. I really want to know what universal head trauma occurred to homosapiens, which caused these things to happen:

1. The Da Vinci Code: How does a nation come to the understanding that a dime novelist (Dan Brown) somehow stumbled upon the keys to the universe? The man has a 300-word vocabulary. Although he does refer to events in history (only picked it up once, but I know Da Vinci and the New Testament are wrapped up in it somehow), it does not make it anymore historically valid than any other fiction. These are simple concepts that I hope our readers understand; however, a legion of Christians and Atheists feel the fate of human history is at stake over this book. Let the fiery debate begin.

Atheist: Oh man Dan Brown totally just rocked Christianity. How can you believe in Jesus anymore?

Christian: Oh my gosh Dan Brown just toppled my understanding of the Bible. My life is over. I better go burn my copy of The Da Vinci Code.

If people used this kind of brainpower getting dressed in the morning, everyone would be wearing underwear on their heads.
