Hollywood is getting back some of that old-time religion, thanks to its large but mostly silent community of devout Christians, says reality TV czar Mark Burnett, co-producer of the blockbuster movie “Son of God.”

While the movie “Son of God” had a blockbuster opening weekend at the box office, the next biblical big-screen production on Hollywood’s horizon, “Noah,” is taking heat from some Christians for departing from the scriptural account of the Old Testament story.

Rooms at Iowa State University’s Hotel Memorial Union will no longer contain Gideon Bibles, after a guest complained to a watchdog group about “unwelcome religious propaganda in the bedside table.”

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer says she will review a bill that would allow business owners to cite their religious beliefs as legal justification for refusing service to perspective customers.

Producers of the new “Son of God” movie — the followup to the highly successful miniseries, “The Bible” — say they’ve cut out the character of Satan because he looks too much like President Obama.
