I doubt that the filmakers will actually purge the movie of any of the central religious themes. It's not suprising that representives of Opus Dei and the Catholic church have approached the producers with their concerns, and I imagine Sony simply hopes to create and exploit controversy for the sake of publicity. I think that this article is just the first example.
The book's hypothesis is bunk and the church can always dismiss it. If any change is made, it will be that a distinction between Opus Dei and the villans will be emphasized.
If the church and Opus Dei are as savvy as Sony, they'll use the controversy to espouse their views too. The dance begins...
