Bible backlash? Michael Medved had the producer* of the NBC mini-series, Revelations, on for an extended interview. What was surprising was the number of unhappy callers who took issue with the story. A Catholic called to complain that a lead character, a nun, was portrayed as believing in the Rapture, something that's not part of Catholic doctrine. That was followed by a Southern Baptist who, taking Revelation literally, didn't like other elements of the plot. It could turn out that the effort by NBC to tap into a religious audience may backfire.

Behold Ugga, the much ballyhooed revelations flops.
Why?
Because Revelations is being co-opted by politicians for partisan gain and division of the people, and the "hix stix" clearly see it too.
