I know your going to say, it was fiction, and yes, but, it still made people think about religion from a different view point. And definitely had us all looking at the photo of the last supper twice....

I thought it was a fantastic novel and that it probably has a lot of truth in it!

Assuming you mean Christian faiths then the real question is does it matter if it is true? Does the original message of the New Testament change based on it being true or not?
Jesus was a man so if he had children it would be perfectly within the scope of being a man.
As for other faiths that are non Christian it would not matter to any of them in any way at all.
The writings of Dan B area a mixture of different things. A more interesting subject would be to find out what happened to Jesus between the ages of 13 and 29.

Dan Brown is a "writer." As a WRITER his first ambition is to "himself" and sell what he writes, false, true whatever. If the faithful gained if even one second of doubt over all the fantasy Brown wrote about, they most likely didn't have much to begin with, and if any lost their faith BECAUSE of his books, they were not the kind who knew much about anything Brown brought doubt upon through his lies and NEED the time to find the truth in themselves, the world, and it's realities of REAL facts....

No, Christianity has taken a hit. There seem to be a number of people who seriously believe that it was feasible. It was the first time the whole Merovingian conspiracy was brought into the mainstream. Unfortunately---brought to the mainstream through faulty historical research and crap writing. Both books worked better than Unisom for me!

I have faith, nothing will shake my belief, even if Mary Magdalene and Jesus had a child. That doesn't bother me, Jesus' message is so great and wonderful if he had a child that would be okay with me.

demons*. not daemons. and is it really so wrong to look at your religion in a different way? or should you always look at it in one way and never doubt it and follow like a sheep?

We know that Christianity suffers because it is obsolete and won't change.
Can't blame any one book. Blame its adherents.

if their minds are getting out of the box , that they try to put God in ...... it can be a very positive thing.

What you see as suffering, I see as enlightening.

I hope so. I'm not afraid to say "Agnostic" anymore.
