Good Suggestion by Gandalf the White

With all the wave stir up by the Da Vinci Code movie, and all the Christian Protest, lets give our mind a break and listen to the "Teacher" who try to steal the Holy Grail in the movie.
Ian McKellen, One of the cast and main role in the upcoming controversial movie - The Da Vinci Code, says:

"Well, I've often thought the Bible should have a disclaimer in the front saying this is fiction. I mean, walking on water, it takes an act of faith. And I have faith in this movie. Not that it's true, not that it's factual, but that it's a jolly good story. And I think audiences are clever enough and bright enough to separate out fact and fiction, and discuss the thing after they've seen it."

A disclaimer in front of the Bible, Warning: Everything you read in the Bible may or may not be a fiction, your past experience cannot help you, your prayer cannot guide you, Jesus will not be there for you.

Well, I mean, you cannot prove anything in the Scripture, it is only ethical to warn people who read it, including your children.

At least now I can answer my children question about events in the Bible, I can plainly say:
"Dear, this is only a fiction, don't take it too hard."
