Unintentional irony from the Roman Catholic Church

"The book is everywhere. There is a very real risk that many people who read it will believe that the fables it contains are true."

Thus spake the representative of the Roman Catholic Church about the Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown.

Surely I am not the only one to find deep irony in the Vatican's dismissal of a widspread and popular tome as a dangerous fiction ... I was briefly tempted to pen a scathingly satirical article for the Rockall Times, but really, what's the point?
