The Da Vinci Code

I know it's not a new book and new movie, but it still makes me curious especially about what facts are and what the fiction are in the story. Do you think that the Holy Grails is located somewhere in Louvre?

It's all a theory really. I think the whole jist of the story was that the holy grail was actually the woman who was a descendant [I believe the last] of Jesus Christ. That's the thing about the bible in my opinion, the stories and the lessons should be taken as analogies, not as literal facts.

A wonderful book and a wonderful work of fiction. I was surprised that there was such an uproar about it. It was all fantasy and conjecture but very cleverly researched and put together. I also liked the film, and yes, it's all about the theory that Jesus and Mary Magdelain were married and produced offspring so Jesus has descendants.

Dan Brown does a good job of taking some facts, and bending others to make his stories believable. This I think gets others to believe the things that are not facts to be true.

Yeah, he would be a great president! LOL. Seriously though, the book is just a story, nothing more but it seems everyone takes everything literally these days.
There is no evidence at all that the Grail wasn't a person or if it was an article, that it still exists.
