Gene Edward Veith on the Busted Blockbuster

Celebrated author and columnist, Gene Edward Veith explores the unsuspected fact that The Da Vinci Code turned out to be a rotten tomato. Check out his article and take seriously his last line.

"Meanwhile, Christians trying to convey a far better message should keep in mind
that aesthetics really do matter."
In a day when so many churches and ministries just try to get by packaging the glorious Gospel in unworthy wrappings, we should remember this quote and make a change.

I read the article, and I'm not really sure what Veith means by "aesthetics really do matter."

This sounds like the sort of statement a RC or EO might make in defense of iconography.

The proclamation of the Gospel seems to have little to do with cinematography...so, the questions is...what is meant here by "aestheitcs?"

I'm not really following.
