Rev. Joey N. Welsh: Part II - Reinhold Niebuhr Another Angle, the occasional musing so of a Kentucky pastor This essay first appeared in The Hart County News, Munfordville, KY, on August 28, 2005. Reprinted here with the author's permission. (Author's note: I wrote this well before the 2006 brouhaha over the movie of The da Vinci Code and the widespread fear that it was a dangerous - and serious -attack on Christianity. I hold to my original estimation of Dan Brown's work as beingoften inaccurate potboiler fiction. Anyone who treats his books and filmasprofound theologydeserving censorship and boycottsis giving these thrillersmore credence than they deserve. Sometimes when we try to boycott or eradicate something, we bestow upon it the status of martyr and give it far more attention than it would ever receive otherwise.) By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh joey_n_welsh@hotmail.com A GIANT IN THE REALM OF RELIGIOUS THOUGHT - PART II Dan Brown, the fabulously successful author of The da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons, fills his books with fascinating historical, artistic, scientific and theological details. He uses so many cultural minutiae that loads of people have taken to the belief that the thrillers and their plots must all be factual. Wrong! The books are, at heart, clever potboiler fiction, and sometimes even Browns bits of trivia are off-base. For example, on page 169 of Angels and Demons, two main characters make conversational reference to the traditional Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi, and one begins to quote it as, God, grant me strength to accept those things I cannot change. It is a fine prayer and a wonderful thought, but St. Francis had nothing to do with it, and the author even misquotes its opening words.

Jim Chapman: Columbia . . . will always be where I'm from A picture of homeplace being razed was painful, but there's a happy ending for one treasured element, the swing, which still provides summer pleasure as it did when hung on the porch of the Robert & Lucille Chapman home on Jamestown Street many years ago By Jim Chapman It was a sad day for me when my sister Sue, of Columbia, forwarded to me, your article and pictures of our childhood Columbia home being razed. Although painful to see, it made me wish that I could have been there to see the tear down. Along with our parents, five of us, as kids, lived there, attending Columbia schools.
