Well, he was Catholic, but my assumption was it was just something he came up with himself. Are you telling me that Catholics actually believe that?!

They do.

My grandmother attended church regularly for several years.  One day, the pastor gave a strong sermon saying "Gone with the Wind" was an evil movie and anyone that went to see it was going straight to hell.   Since my grandmother had already seen it the past evening, she concluded there was nothing she could do now and stopped going to church.  For the next several decades, she lived her life in a more Christian manner than 99% of the people I've met who attend church.

Here's another one my wife encountered today:  "If you get blood transfusions, you inherit the sins of the people that blood came from."

Speaking of Mary. I was talking to a guy a few years ago that believed that Mary never had sex after Jesus' birth and that his "brothers" were really cousins or something. He also believed Mary was perfect because Jesus could only come from "perfect" flesh. I don't know what bible book, chapters or verses he got that stuff from. We were not in a place to discuss it at the time.

I once got into an argument with a guy who believed that plays and movies should not be used to spread the word of God, because the Bible gives no instructions to use plays or movies as away to spread the word of God. There for it should not be done. 

Ok then I would like to see how this person feels about using TV/movies/plays to spread the gospel to people in other countries who are illiterate and in a few cases dont even have an alphabet (and so dont even have a bible)
