Debunking the Da Vinci Code

Debunking the Da Vinci Code
I think this is an appropriate article, since today is the day for St.Mary Magdalene, the way she is portrayed in the Da Vinci code is absolute nonesense and disrespectful.
Click on the link above if you would like to know more about her.

Patrick,
I havent actually read the book, only small parts and have discussed it with friends etc.
I know it's just a made up story and i'm not against that, and if people like it then im ok with that too.
Personally I find it disrespectful that someone would write about Jesus being married, and to Mary Magdalene, also that they share a child, and thought since it were Mary Magdalenes day that I would link over to some things written about it.

I read the Da Vinci Code. Carmel, don't waste your time and your mental energy.

Yeah, it's fiction but he does everything he can to make it seem as though he's done quality research and is making a plausible historical argument. It's very deceptive.

Even the reviews say, well...the story is fiction, but Brown has done his homework. He hasn't. He's read three or four bad books from the 70's.

Anyway. i'll stop ranting. I gave a lecture on the Da Vinci Code last year. Two hours thirty minutes of me explaining why this is all wrong.

Wendy,
If you're looking for a good book on Mary, the Mother of Jesus, I'd recommend "Hail, Holy Queen" by Scott Hahn.

Anastasia, thanks for your input, I like how you "tell it like it is" :-) I will be keeping myself updated on your blog about "Greece"!!!

Wendy,
I'm interested in reading that book Jonathan recommended to you.

Lovable Linda,
I'm confused about the whole thing too!
Nice to hear from you guys!
