All that P*ss**n *f Th* Chr*st spam is apparently just trying for Google hits. This post suggests dealing with them appropriately. Put the following HTML into an entry or comment:

<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079470/">The Passion of The Christ</a>. <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079470/">Trailers</a>. <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079470/">Good Website</a>. <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079470/">Protesting Gibson's Passion Lacks Moral Legitimacy</a>.

This will create the following links: The Passion of The Christ. Trailers. Good Website. Protesting Gibson's Passion Lacks Moral Legitimacy. Note that this is the same wording for the links as found in the original spam.

Update: If you stick the links on a web page, feed it to http://www.google.com/addurl.html so it's added to their list as quickly as possible.

Actually, I don't think this will work. The main effect it will have is simply to increase the pagerank of the IMDB page for Life of Brian.

It won't do anything to counter the fact that the spammers are increasing the pagerank of the Passion of Christ site, and since the Life of Brian page won't include any of the search terms, Google will tend to favour the Passion of Christ site over the Life of Brian page quite strongly.

Yeah. Preferably on a prominent news site, which will therefore have a high pagerank to start with...

Will this do?

Not actually on the topic, but it does contain the search terms.

Have you tried slashdotting it?

Ah. As something to link to in a Slashdot article.
