I have never heard of the Divinchi Code. However, a man of the same name wrote a fictional story called the DaVinci Code. Why anyone would imagine that they should believe anything at all in a fictional story is beyond me, let alone "everything" in it. And why anyone from a pampered and arrogant religion should imagine anyone should give them special privileges is equally beyond me.

The DaVinci Code is a work of fiction, based on Dan Brown's interpretation of a number of existing documents. I look at as a work of fiction, nothing more. It's intriguing as all get out... a wonderful book... but it's fiction.
I can not pretend to judge the material he based it on... all we know is that the material he used IS true.

No, but I think there is some truth there. The Church had taught us that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute. History has proven otherwise. In my opinion, the Davinci Code was a work of fiction, based on some facts.

Hi Honey,
It's an interesting book that highlights some inacuracies in the christian faith. I do agree with the Mary Magdelane stuff and the possibility that Christs decendents might be walking the Earth now.

No, I don't. But I got the impression that Dan Brown is really into the divine feminine historical repression story. I believe he is a personal friend and admirer of Margaret Starbird & she writes NONFICTION books on the divine feminine. I think he agrees with her personally.

Is this a serious question? I read a lot and found The Da Vinci Code to be way over rated. And No i did not believe everything (make that anything ) in it!

Considering the number of historical inaccuraties there are in the book, no. It is a work of fiction. He took a real setting and then altered it to fit his story, like all authors of historical fiction do.

It is a novel. It is fiction. And as with all good fiction, there is SOME basis in reality. It is for you to decide if you want to explore more, and read more on the subject.

Absolutely not. Go to the library and you'll see it listed as FICTION. It takes it's inspiration from a few facts, but it is not real. Go do some research on your own, and don't take just one person's word for it.

Nope, and I don't think anyone should. He wrote a work of fiction. Maybe he happened to say a few truths, I'm not saying it's all lies. But don't think it's true either. Fiction.
