I regret the blitheness with which I participated in religious rituals I just couldn't bring myself to take seriously. But I think that the ability for my book to bridge a gap between evangelical Christians and nonbelievers does mitigate to some extent what...
...Scary Movie 4, by about 50%. (Clash's $135 million budget was three times as high as SM4's.) But the movie earned about $10 million less than Fast and Furious, which opened on this (non-Easter) weekend last year, and about $9 million less than the opening weekend take of 300, the antique-Greek saga whose success three years ago surely inspired Warner Bros. to remake the original, 1981 version of Clash.

Since TIME's iPad app was also...
...iPhone). I love the Touch's handiness and the fact that, beyond carrying my entire iTunes library of everything from Rachmaninoff to Lady Gaga, it also has the neat Amazon Kindle app that lets me upload War and Peace (or whatever book in my library I'm reading) and take it with me - palm-sized and backlit...
