There's some about that in _Dogma_ too.  More than just a mention.  That
movie is one of the best ever made IMO, and well worth seeing if you
haven't.  Lots of things they left out of the Bible, like God loving to
play Skee Ball, as well as shots at the Catholic Church's more recent
reformations.  Can you spot the drunken nun at the airport?  I missed that
the first couple of times through...too busy watching the main characters
in that scene.  I could have done without the Golgothan scene though...the
joke wasn't enough to make up for the visuals...
