I haven't read it, I've only seen the movie. I didn't know about the preface.
I apologize for saying I can't see how you could be in a rage about this from the perspective of a historian, since I am not or anywhere near a historian. But is it possible for you to admit that part of the rage comes from the fact that you are a Christian? It definitely adds quite a bit of fuel to the fire, if not the main source for it.
I am disgusted at the thought that this kind of ignorant diatribe can be read
Some would say that about the Bible itself.
People will read what they want to read and they will watch what they want to watch. I don't have a problem with it; I view it as fiction. For those that do not, well, that's their problem. And, er, yours as well, I suppose. =P
