agree or disagree: the davinci code is a bunch of crap?

Question

i agree

Answer 1

It mixes fact and fiction together, it's a mystery book because it leaves alot for the reader to figure out themselves.

Answer 2

Actually, there was NOT a guy named DaVinci. His name was Leonardo. He was an illegitimate child and had no last name, so historians call him by the name of the town where he lived, Vinci. He was Leonardo of (da) Vinci.

Read the book. It was an interesting read. Dan Brown held my interest, and I was very curious to see what final great revelation of suppressed religious truth he had to reveal. In the meantime I toleranted the innaccurites in the book (such as the Dead Sea scrolls being found in the 1950, when they were found in 1946-47 - or that they contain 80 different gnostic gospels of Jesus when in fact they were Jewish writings that pre-dated Jesus by about 150 years and do not contain a single Christian related document - that the Counsel of Milan in 325AD changed the New Testament, when we have over 2000 copies of the NT books that predate the council, etc.)

Well, when I finally got to the end, and Dan Brown gave his great revelation - I was disappointed. Of all the great religious or philosphical truths he could have presented, the best he could give us was a group of people watching an elder couple screw each other in a basement somewhere. This is the great truth that when finally revealed will change the world and liberate people - especially women. Sex for nothing more than pleasure is the ultimate reality. Give me a break....

I was very disappointed by the end of the book.

Answer 3

The "davinci code" does not pretend to be the truth. It is a work of fiction.

It is not the first time that story has been told.. There are many other works of fiction about that same topic.

Answer 4

Crap

Answer 5

It's a novel. If you didn't like it don't read the dudes other books. Judging it factually would be like saying the HArry Potter books are a bunch of crap because you can't find a real address for Hogwarts in your directory.

Answer 6

The DaVinci code is FICTION and ENTERTAINMENT. It just happens to have some good research elements that are based on truth. It is not crap. I did not read the book, but I thought that the movie was actually pretty good.

Answer 7

The Da Vinci Code is a movie and a book. Get over it.

Answer 8

It's a novel. That's all. A novel. Everyone that knows anything about it--including the AUTHOR and the PUBLISHER--know and say that it is fiction. It is sold in the fiction section. So its historical accuracy doesn't matter.

Beyond that, it is kinda crappy fiction, so I suppose I sort of agree.

Answer 9

Agree. What bugs me is that people are taking it as fact. It's a book written as fiction, and the author even said so. NOthing in that book is true! The History (or Discovery) channel did a whole show on the places in the book and proved that there was no truth to even the places in it. It's all bunk.

Answer 10

I think you can have a "bunch of grapes," or a "pile of crap," but I don't know about "bunch of crap." Now, there is also "pile of garbage," and "a load of crap." I think I've even heard, "pile of s**t," "a stack of s**t," and "a load of s**t." There have been some alliterative variations of these, such as "bunch o'blarney," "bunch o'bull," "bunch o'bull-s**t," "pile o'bull-s**t," "big bunch o'bull-s**t," and one of my favorites, "he doesn't know s**t from Shinola."
In a departure from these rather scatological responses, a more elegant retort could be "one could drive a Big-Mack truck through that argument and never scrape against a fact."

Answer 11

I agree with the davinci code becuase one thing that men need to realize is that women are worh alot more than they think
