Of course the French kings who wanted the undivided loyalty of the peasants claimed divine heritage.

Obviously that doesn't make it true, regardless of the ambitions of some British filmaker.

QUICK.....Somebody tell Geraldo!!!!!

follows a three-year investigation led by Burgess and his American producing partner, Rene Barnett, in their search for answers into the bloodline conspiracy made popular by the “Da Vinci Code”.

The book was fiction. Why not search the historic records for the family tree of Rocky Balboa?

Burgess? Hello? Burgess? You in there? Here is a bit of news for you, the "Da Vinci Code" WAS FICTION!

After that, I've got some Clark Kent hair they can take a look at.

It's lunacy, but understandable. They've been trying to find that body for close to 2000 years now.

Sorry to rain atop your parade, my friend, but this investigation has proven that Rocky Balboa is, of course, of the ancient bloodline of Jesus and the Magdalen. How else would he “rise from the dead” so often in the ring, a miracle each time he does it. His caring for Paulie, Adrian, for all creatures great and small, and his amazing ability to float up the stairs of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, he can only be of the line of the King of Kings.

Flying high now, eye of the tiger (wasn’t Mary of Magdaline’s eye known as the “look of the tigeress”?), and an uncanny need to drink raw eggs (see “Jesus wept”, a report on Jesus’ quest for the perfect omelet) all convince scholars that Rocky Balboa, not quite human, descends from a long line of epics, and is himself a sequal to those who came before.

Which begs the question: Who cut Superman's hair? What did he use to cut it? Kryptonite scissors?

I saw a DC comic years ago with a scene where somebody snuck up behind Clark Kent with a hair clipper and tried to get a hank of hair off him. Naturally, the clipper shattered to bits.

IIRC, he covered that incident by claiming the clipper must have been defective.

Please note that the author himself states clearly that the theories in the Da Vinci Code are FICTION

No amount of WISHING the theories would be real will make the theories real. The theories are based on IMAGINED discussions by FICTIONAL CHARACTERS.

QUOTE If you read the "FACT" page, you will see it clearly states that the documents, rituals, organization, artwork, and architecture in the novel all exist. The "FACT" page makes no statement whatsoever about any of the ancient theories discussed by fictional characters. UNQUOTE

shows it holds a mummified corpse under a shroud bearing the red cross of the Knights Templar.

Reynald de Chatillion?

The DaVinci Code is purely a work of fiction but some folks desperately want it or something like it to be true, either to "disprove" Christianity altogether or to resurrect a Gnosticism. Some think it puts them in control.It is amazing the amount of resources they will expend to try to make this all true.

[fatima]

Thanks for the ping:)

[chesley]

So, who’s DNA are they going to compare it against? And even if it matches, what has actually been proven?

[chesley]

Satan, the Prince of this World, has an amazing amount of resources to expend.

“...this investigation has proven that Rocky Balboa is, of course, of the ancient bloodline of Jesus and the Magdalen...”

Throw in a little Rambo, and you can explain the theology from “Talladega Nights”:

[ApplegateRanch]

This has to be BS, because they already found Jesus tomb, bones, body, ossuary...in about 16 other places.

The Da Vince Code was fiction. It was based in part on a non-fiction book Sacred Blood Holy Grail that was published in 1980.

It posited the theory that Mary Magdalen and Child was spirited out of Palestine to France and this started the French royal line aided later by the Templars.

Whether you accept the theory and facts of the original non-fiction work is another story.
