the book, the divici code says it is fiction based on history
the books, the left behind series say they are based on prophecy
for those like me who have read both, which do you find more believable?

Both are fiction. That's like asking me if Snow White is more believeable than Cinderella.

I have read both. I have to say that eventhough the divinci code is a fiction book. when you actually do the research, and read the dead sea scroll (translations). especially the gospel of mary mag. u can see the truth in the davinci code.. in the terms that Jesus and Mary Mag. had a different relationship than he did with the others, he kissed her on the mouth... however, to really know if there is any truth to the holy grail being the child of Mary and Jesus, I can't say I have found the proof. I think far more research, and going after the CATHOLIC church for picking and chosing what we should read as the "Bible" should be done.
As for the Left Behind series, anyone who reads the Bible can find those prophecies in them, and act them out however they want, we all have different inturpentaitons of what we read

Well, you tell me:
Read any history book you desire and than research its claims and you'll see that there are a view things that the history books get wrong.
Now research the Bible, tell me one thing that has been disproved or that is wrong. One contradiction. I can't find any.
And I know that there are a view that say the Bible contradicts itself, but if you really understand the Bible, all of it, then you'll see how it fits together perfectly like a puzzle. Each verse fits into each chapter, each chapter into each book, each book into each testament, and the two testaments make up the perfect Word of God.
I for one believe prophecy over history.

The divinci code is just a way to get money none of that is true. The left behind series are the ones to believe.

Left Behind. BUT seriously, both are FAR from the Truth.
History is true and so is Bible prophecy, but both of these books get it so much wrong.

The left-behind series. Although they are one of several interpretations, at least they are based on the word of God rather than a distortion of history.

Neither one is creidble in any way. Brown's book re-assembles some old conspiracy theories in a new and to me revolting hash. The "Left Behind" series authors themselves disclaim trying to genuinely interpret Biblical text.
it is all superstitious mumbo-jumbo, anyhow.

You could use the Da Vinci Code with Moby Dick also or almost any book.

God knows everything past,present and future. The Bible prophesied future events during the B.C. era which have become the world's history.
