Did you actually read the Da Vinci code from start to finish?

IMO it's a great book and story. Even if some of the "facts" on the Knights Templer, the Priory of Sion, the Rose, the Merigovians etc. are taken from folklore and difficult to prove. Personally I like the idea of Mary Magdaline having not been a whore, and having been a lady with class, and Jesus and her having been married and having had offspring and a bloodline that exists to this day. Who knows maybe there are hidden manuscripts somewhere?

I wonder why is it when former Family members don't agree with someone, or don't like what they publish or say, they say that the person is like Berg?

If I wanted to I could throw out the suggestion that the way someone defends the Bible as the ultimate truth is like Berg too. But that would be a cheap shot and take the discussion nowhere.

I saw a Dan Brown interview, thank God he's not at all like Berg. We know what Berg was like better than anybody don't we?

The Da Vinci is soon to be a blockbuster starring some of my favorites, Tom Hanks, Rene Reno, and Audrey Toutou. A "faut voir" (don't miss), as far as I'm concerned.
