The end is nigh!

It's a strange world: A sculpture of an erect Christ gets complaints and media coverage, yet there's barely a peep of discontent about something like the BBC's 'Messiah V: The Rapture', which focused on a religious serial-killer obsessed with the idea of the apocalypse.



It even made it as a pick-of-the-day in 'The Telegraph', a paper usually eager to attack both the beeb and "aggressive secularists".

Not that I'm complaining. I'm just confused at the logic behind it.

DI Hedges: The world will end one day. In five billion years the sun will die and take us all with it.
DCI Walker: If you believe in science.
(Watches as the body of the killer is wheeled away)
DI Hedges: I'll take it over religion any day.
