Are you bothered by the wording at the end of Biblical epics?

Asked by JackAdams (6574points) August 23rd, 2008

At the end of every biblical movie I have ever seen, such as “BEN HUR” or “THE TEN COMMANDMENTS” or “SAMSON & DELILAH” or even, “THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST,” you will see something similar to the following:

“This screenplay is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidentical.”

That means that the Bible and everything in it is “fictional,” right? Otherwise, that admonishment wouldn’t appear, would it?
