religious censorship, anyone?

From Newsday:

Conservative/religious groups are protesting a movie called "Kinsey", a biography of the pioneering professor, Alfred Kinsey. He is being blamed for STD's, pornography, abortion, AIDs, the divorce rate, and anything else they can think of! All because he did a study of sex!

'"Instead of being lionized, Kinsey's proper place is with Nazi Dr. Josef Mengele or your average Hollywood horror flick mad scientist," said Robert Knight, director of Concerned Women of America's Culture & Family Institute.'

Whew! Even though the movie shows a negative side of Kinsey's personality, these groups don't think that it is negative enough! It's a MOVIE people! Film writers don't tell you how to write your little religious tracts, do they?!
