I don't remember
anything like that when "Life of Brian" was released.

I bloody do
I give you two words - Malcolm Muggeridge.

He hated 'Brian' and the Pythons so much, he even denounced Terry Gilliam at a dinner party for using a fork with his right hand, as Merkins apparently do.

Wasn't just him either. Didn't I hear recently that some backwater local authority has only just 'unbanned' cinema showings of it?

I don't remember
a load of christians setting fire to places and having riots and such.

Re. the unbanning. It was in Aberystwyth (I think), the mayoress of which was Brian's girlfriend in the film, and she was the one who lifted the ban. Probably so a load of Welsh people could see her muff and knockers on the big screen.

True about the glaring absence of fire/riots
wondering about the muff/knockers though.

there was also
a massive TV debate with I think a local priest or bishop who also poo pooed the idea of the film.
