I'd love to disagree with everyone one and say its all true and the Knights Templar hid a grail in a Scottish church and that the Holy Blood is the bloodline of Christ, but nah. The Grail legend first occured in the 12th Century. Its a bit like Alex Garland's 'The Beach' really - a good read but written by a guy whose only ever read two books and contrived an intertextual hotchpotch that is so transparently fictional you'd have to be an amoeba on Saturn not to take it with a pinch of salt.

When people make predictions they are just lucky that they get things right, but can't get things right every time. Even God told us not to believe in predictions because He said that only He knows all the answers.
Doing things like reading what other people have to say or trying tarot cards, listening to astrologers, or listening about past lives, having family contact us from beyond, it's all for entertainment purposes and is not real. These days people have learned to write books for a living. When you read their books or go to the movies you give them income to survive, in essence you buy their goods. And the more they can promote their book (and movies from that book) the better they can pay for their retirement or give back to the world. If that's what you're supporting then kudos to you. If you're so open minded that you're falling for opinions, then that's up to you.

The book is fictional, so there's no "believing in it". However, as with most fictional pieces, there are facts and truths that are wrote in there. I think his concept is interesting and some of his supportive information has accuracy to it. Do I think that its a total truth? Absolutely not. But it raises interesting concepts and questions.

What do you mean "believe in"? The movie was slow moving and boring, and I was hoping that at any moment Indiana Jones would jump out and stir things up a bit. It was just a bit too contrived for my taste.
But again, that's my opinion about the movie, but I still don't know what you mean by "believe in". (The Biblical definition of the Greek word "to believe" means to believe in, trust in, cling to, and rely on. It's the same kind of word a jumper uses to describe his relationship to his parachute.

It is fiction - an up market James Bond story in which the author uses the book to expound his anti Christian position. There is no issue of belief.

I believe that the catholic church for years has twisted and turned the history of the faith to suit their needs.
Mary M. was never a prostitute, it just served to enforce the patriarchy.
Great book, best premise ever.
It was fun to watch all those zealots twist in the hypothetical wind of the holy grail.

I believe it is a fictional novel written by a brilliant writer.
Learn the difference between fiction and reality.

It's an almost-well-written piece of fiction. No, I don't believe in it. Are there some good points in it? Sure. And if it can invoke even one person to educate themselves and question themselves and what they are taught, great. But it's nothing more than fantasy.
