the code states that jesus loved mary magdelen, could the prophets before jesuses coming, have already come to reveal the real truth of jesus. around 40 years ago scrolls were found in egypt, and in the scrolls it stated that jesus loved mary magdalen more than his own deciples, dont you think tis could be the begining of the second coming of jesus in spirit?, im only asking for an opinion, not the book itself, true believers are through the word of mouth through the holyspirit,

And since you asked for an opinion,,,I give you mine.
Since Jesus didnt come back when he said he was going to, there is great doubt that the gospel authors were even telling the truth about his supposed first existance 2000 years ago.... It is my opinion that Dan Brown wrote just about as good a fiction narrative about Jesus and Mary as Matthew, Mark, Luke and John did. Except for one major exception. We know that Dan Brown is the real author of the Da Vinci Code....and no one knows who on earth were the authors of the New Testament fictions about Jesus. And for those that thought the authors were Jesus disciples...the facts dont add up. Luke never met Jesus, nor any of the other supposed disciples...yet, strangely, he is able to Quote Jesus word for word, which of course differs from the other Gospel authors... and yet, each of those authors, declares that his version of the QUOTED words of Jesus in the inerrant version...and all four gospels contradict each the other on every detail of the Jesus Fiction...so...you ask for an opinion. Take it from one who studied the Scriptures for over fifty years,,,majoring in BIBLE STUDY, and Greek and Latin and later, Hebrew Language,,,,in order to discover the truth....and the truth is,,,,the good news is that there is No Christian Heaven or Christian hell, these are doctrines of pagan religions plagiarized from pagan cults, such as Mithrism.
In the event you are interested in the coming of the Biblical Messiah, you might want to read the Hebrew Bible, in Malachi, which describes the return of the prophet Eliajah, who is reputed to have a ministry of turning the hearts of the fathers to their sons, and vice versa......and since I havent seen any of that ministry happening yet,,,,I suppose that we may have a bit longer to wait for Messiah...hopefully not too much longer though, as we need that ministry very badly world wide. Opinion given. Thanks for reading. Sincerely

Fiction: "A literary work based on the imagination and not necessarily on fact or a deliberately false or improbable account" That's the definition of fiction, and that's what fits The Da Vinci Code. That's why it was marketed as fiction. No doubt there are some people who would be more comfortable with the idea that Jesus was just a man and no different than any other man. That's not true, however. The idea that Jesus did not die on the cross but instead married Mary Magdelene and had children is belied by the fact that (barring the betrayer Judas Iscariot) all his apostles and a good many of His followers were persecuted and died for their belief in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. If I stretch my imagination A GREAT DEAL, I could believe one man might die for what he knows is a lie, but TWELVE (counting Paul) and any number of others who actually witnessed Jesus' beatings, crucifixion and death and resurrection? Nah, don't think so. It would most assuredly be outside the realm of human nature, which includes a very great survival instinct! That would REALLY defy even the best of imaginations. Persiphone, I stand corrected on that point. I suppose I was getting it confused with The Passover Plot (there are quite a number of books that have been written trying to change what happened or the perception of it at the least). Where did you get the information that the Gospels were written hundreds of years after the fact? They were, in fact, written by Jesus' followers and from their own perspectives and there are extant copies to show that. (Unless, of course, you believe John and Matthew lived hundreds of years.) By the way, the eye witness accounts after the resurrection of Jesus show that Mary Magdelene was one of the first to see Jesus. There was no child and Jesus talked to her in the same way that He talked to all His other followers. There are no accounts from that period of history to indicate Jesus had any wife or child; quite the contrary. Some of those accounts, too, were written by people who WERE NOT followers of Jesus. One other point, the apostle Paul NEVER married. So, yes, there were men of more than 30 who didn't marry; just as there are today.

Dan Brown is no prophet...He's not a false prophet either...his work "the Da Vinci Code" is a fiction book. he wrote this to be an intriguing thriller and not some new Gospel. Even Sony Entertainment called the movie a thriller and fiction. So why the fuss?

Most church's today are really making "much ado about nothing".
It's funny that they didn't step out to reveal all of the heresies in Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ"; but, rather promoted it and helped market it in their own "churchs". Some even sold tickets and played the movie in their churchs.

don't believe everything that is found, that's what i say, because you can't really verify the author of those scrolls. they were written a little less than 2,000 years ago. they were also written during a time when Christianity was in its infant stages, and during that time, there were a bunch of beliefs about jesus. it wasn't until the Counsel of Niceea that Jesus' divinity and humanity were officially accepted. my point is: those scrolls could have been written by some wacky off shoot of christianity. honestly, i'm a catholic, but i even question the accepted Bible. it really is good to question everything so that you can really understand why you believe in something. to answer the other part: i don't believe that this could be the second coming. you'll think that i'm blasphemous, but i question whether or not jesus was even divine, let alone the only son of god.

Hollywood intends to re-write history but one only needs to research for themselves the validity of the claims. For example the quality of the New Testament documents can be validated outside of the Bible through the research of Josephus Flavius, Tacitus, Caesar's Gallic Wars, Herodotus, and Thucydides. In fact there are 5366 documents discovered so far to validate that the Bible we have today is 99.5% as accurate as it was way back then. For example:

The first-century Jewish historian Josephus referred to the stoning of “James, the brother of Jesus who was called the Christ.” (The Jewish Antiquities, Josephus, Book XX, sec. 200) A direct and very favorable reference to Jesus, found in Book XVIII, sections 63, 64, has been challenged by some who claim that it must have been either added later or embellished by Christians; but it is acknowledged that the vocabulary and the style are basically those of Josephus, and the passage is found in all available manuscripts.

Tacitus, a Roman historian who lived during the latter part of the first century C.E., wrote: “Christus [Latin for “Christ”], from whom the name [Christian] had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of one of our procurators, Pontius Pilatus.”—The Complete Works of Tacitus (New York, 1942), “The Annals,” Book 15, par. 44.

With reference to early non-Christian historical references to Jesus, The New Encyclopædia Britannica states: “These independent accounts prove that in ancient times even the opponents of Christianity never doubted the historicity of Jesus, which was disputed for the first time and on inadequate grounds by several authors at the end of the 18th, during the 19th, and at the beginning of the 20th centuries.”—(1976), Macropædia, Vol. 10, p. 145.

Internal evidence is pretty clear as well. 2 Peter 3:15-16 clearly states that the canon was already in the process of being collected for what we have today in the Bible. There were gnostic books but they were not accepted because they were written by Hellenistic writers that intended to change the original message of the Greek translation to imply that Jesus was not the Son of God.

The books recently found are not inspired books, they are called Gnostic books. Books created by an early cult, that believed "special" knowledge about God and Jesus saved you and gave you salvation, so they wrote extra uninspired books. Many also believed, they were the children of Jesus and Mary so they would soon rule the world.
