Nor is Alex. He's just saying he understand why the church would have motivation to convince people otherwise.

The Catholic Church is upset about something nearly every day it seems. If people believe the Church is out to get them, I'm thinking that might be more the Church's fault than Dan Brown's. If they want to start a "we're not really like that, come to Mass and get a free puppy" campaign, that's understandable (to me.) In my opinion, saying "don't watch it 'cause it's eeeeeeeeeevil" doesn't help their cause any and thus is a bit silly.

And the more rational (therefor less press-worthy) members of church are doing just that. Holding classes and giving sermons to study what is an isn't true in the book and what it means.
