Too Many!

Historical, theological and art-historical background which he presented as fact, were products of an 'artistic licence' on overdrive.

And the REALLY sad part is that many of those who've read it can't tell the difference!

How many times have you heard the quote 'history was written by the victors' recently?

You'll be glad to hear that I'm NOT now going to start 'citing chapter and verse....... but if you're curious;- I'm including a few things you can read.

Answer 3

The Catholic Church believes the book is so dangerous, it dispatched a senior Cardinal to refute it. And now, faced with the prospect of a major movie starring Tom Hanks, Catholic groups have been pressuring the producers to change the plot, particularly the part about the member of the conservative and secretive Catholic sect, Opus Dei, who is the villain of the piece.

"The only impression that some people will get of Opus Dei or of Catholicism will be of this very off the wall idea of a strange Machiavellian, dark set of people who are spending their entire lives wondering around ancient cathedrals murdering people," said Ella Leonard, a member of the Opus Dei Catholic sect. "Which is obviously very far from the truth."

Some Protestants have joined the fight. Some of the scenes in the novel take place at Westminster Abbey in London, the Anglican church which has been the setting for every British coronation since 1066. But when the producers wanted to shoot at Westminster, the Abbey said 'No thanks but to your question 40+ million copies were sold
