"The Three Stooges" opens around the country today (April 13th), but there is one group that has already deemed the film a stinker.

The Catholic League's President, Bill Donohue, has put out a statement condemning the movie for its disrespectful portrayal of Catholics, specifically nuns. Donohue claims that the movie is more evidence of the increasing hostility towards religion and Catholics in Hollywood:

And he goes on to say....

Quote
In the 1950s, Hollywood generally avoided crude fare and was respectful of religion. Today it specializes in crudity and trashes Christianity, especially Catholicism. Enter the “The Three Stooges.” This movie is not just another remake: it is a cultural marker of sociological significance, and what it says about the way we’ve changed is not encouraging.

So because a crappy movie doesn't treat religion with kid gloves....we as society are bad?  Aww how itchy boo-boo!  Well let's just look at a still from the movie to see how they portray religion shall we?



....well I can see why he'd be upset.

Say what you will about the Mormon Church, but at least they didn't flip their shit when The Book of Mormon came out. It really says something when the Church of Latter-Day Saints is more rational than you.

Also, sexy nun outfits have been around for a long time, so it's not like they're doing anything new.

Even Jesus thinks Bill is a douche.

I'm more incline to watch the movie now, just to piss Donohue.
That may be the single gayest thing I have ever read on this board. Or the old one. ;)

Well it's not like they could get angry about anything. From what I heard, it was an accurate portrayal of their religion.

is that an actual scene from the movie?
I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Given that it is in the trailer, it was at least filmed. I suppose there is always the chance that it is one of those scenes that make it into the trailer before ultimately getting cut, though. But I doubt that is particularly likely.

So you means it's a comedy?
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

Not shocking, Bill Donohue bitchs about everything, and I have a theory that he jerks off to the thought of the Hays Code making a comeback.
