It is fictitious. It's not true.

There are two books that brown based his work of fiction on.
messianic legacy and holy blood holy grail.
both are poorly researched and take some HUGE leaps to their conclusions.
The knights templar were not slaughtered the way brown portrays in his book. Only the knights in a certain region of france were killed. The rest continued on their duties until they were no longer needed. Many were absorbed into other orders. Some into life among the laity.
I would recommend Fr. Mitch Pacwa's CD set the DuhVinci Code.

Don Brown states that it was the council of Nicea that voted to say that Jesus was God--and that it was a "close vote". Yeah, a close vote of 316 to 2. Wow, how close. Funny, though, a few years ago they discovered in Megiddo, the oldest Christian church dating back to the 2nd century. 100 years before the council of Nicea did their "close vote", we see a mosaic dedication that reads, "dedicated to the God Jesus Christ". This belief was confirmed by the 2nd century writings of Ignatius, Polycarp, Justin Martyr, Irenius and Clement of Alexandria.
And then he has the gall to say there were true gospels in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Man, this guy is delusional.There is not ONE mention of Jesus in ANY of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Yet people are eating this nonsense up.
Mary was Jesus' mother, and He told John, while on the cross, to take her into his home and take care of her. Mary Magdalene was there as well. If they were married, Jesus would have provided for her as well. Do you think after the resurrection that Jesus would have known that Mary M. was pregnant with their child? Yet, when He spoke to her, she called Him "teacher", not "husband", and neither spoke of activity in the womb. A little common sense is needed here.
If you don't want to believe, then say so. But don't base it on ignorant revisionist history like the Da Vinci Code. Looks like the world is all ready for the coming deception...
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12
For this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

The non-fiction book it is based on is Holy Blood, Holy Grail. Read that if you really want to read the accurate case.
