A weekly roundup of the most interesting Web discussions by Singaporeans.
Da Vinci debate
THE Da Vinci Code controversy is being debated feistily online.
On the one hand, we have the likes of razOr032582 who feels that author Dan Brown has distorted facts about the Catholic/Christian faith.
One cannot blame people for being upset, he says, because religion is a sensitive issue.
confused, however, believes the movie will set people thinking. 'It will motivate people to find out more about the topic. Save for those who are brain dead and just accept whatever they see in the movies, then I have nothing to say.'
dereth, meanwhile, pronounces: 'I've read it, researched the facts and judged for myself to come up with this conclusion: It's just a good fictional thriller.'

Paper or dollar chase?
'IS STUDYING for a university degree worth it?' a netizen ironically named BillGates asks.
'We spend three to four years to get our first degree. While we are struggling here coping with studies...our peers who decided to start their career first would have gained a headstart.'
But Netizens here obviously beg to differ.
BaByBoY says graduates will eventually catch up: 'Education is like playing stocks. The returns aren't so great in the first few years but as they mature, you'll strike gold.'

Music player strikes a sour note
I HAVE a problem with a Creative Zen Micro music player I bought. The ear jacks often failed, thus sending no sound to the earphones.
This seems like a manufacturing defect but the company has refused to acknowledge it.
I am stuck with a $399 MP3 player that lasted just one year.
Without a warranty, CreativeCare charges $138.80 to repair the ear jack.
Its customer service was none too helpful, implying that buying a new player off the shelf is the better option.
Surely a product like this should not fail after just one year?
What has happened to Creative's quality control?

This da vinci thing still going on? Come on!? Get a life its a bloody freaking fiction. Don't the people read the news or watch TV!? Treat it as a fiction... It has nothing to do with Christianity I doubt it should have any impact on anyone's faith unless he/her not in touch with the news...
South Park has a cartoonised jesus in a very anti christ protray too... why don't south park gets any potest? -
