I'd Like to Thank the Vatican...
by digitalreporter at 11:31 am EST, Mar 30, 2003

] A word of advice to future Oscar winners: Don't begin
] Oscar day by going to church.
]
] That is where I found myself this past Sunday morning, at
] the Church of the Good Shepherd on Santa Monica
] Boulevard, at Mass with my sister and my dad. My problem
] with the Catholic Mass is that sometimes I find my mind
] wandering after I hear something the priest says, and I
] start thinking all these crazy thoughts like how it is
] wrong to kill people and that you are not allowed to use
] violence upon another human being unless it is in true
] self-defense.
]
] The pope even came right out and said it: This war in
] Iraq is not a just war and, thus, it is a sin.
]
] Those thoughts were with me the rest of the day, from the
] moment I left the church and passed by the homeless
] begging for change (one in six American children living
] in poverty is another form of violence), to the streets
] around the Kodak Theater where antiwar protesters were
] being arrested as I drove by in my studio-sponsored limo.
