As Dan Brown has repeatedly stated IT IS A WORK OF FICTION.

There's nothing to believe or disbelieve. Dan Brown wrote a book of FICTION. Part of his fictional novel contained an old theory that some historians believe, Dan Brown did NOT come up with this. The theory was discussed years ago in the book Holy Blood, Holy Grail. Anything he wrote in the book about the Priory of Sion was nothing more than imagination and embellishment on old stories ... no fact involved.
Now, as for the theory itself of Jesus having a bloodline, I don't understand why it's so hard to believe. Regardless of religion debates, Jesus, if he existed, was a mortal man. A mortal JEWISH man .... who by jewish law at that time frame, would have been required to be married. It isn't so far fetched to believe he'd have some marital fun and produce a child. And even if he did, so what? Does him spawning a family affect the message he supposedly imparted?

It isn't about the storyline, the problem with his book is that he claims [incorrectly] that his source material was all accurate. In fact, the organizations he names aren't about what he claims they are, and some of them were made up by other authors. It would be like saying that NASA launches starships and flying saucers. Yes, there is a NASA. But no, they don't fly to the Horsehead Nebula and back.

he said it was fiction, but he wrote it so it sounded like he believed it, so people got all angry, more people read it tosee what all of the fuss was about- he did it to sell books, and it worked. It is completely false, and has been proved wrong- there was some national geographic thing on it.

It is fiction - no one is supposed to believe it, only be entertained by it.
