There's a phrase not used much anymore, or when it is, it is used to convey sarcasm. The phrase was one to declare righteous indignation:
"Is there nothing sacred?"
I can think of no other way to respond to the premise of this book/movie. Sure, its fiction. Forget that it claims as 'facts' things that are falsehoods.
It pretends that the greatest event in mankind's history - the Resurrection - is a fairy tale. It uses our LORD as a prop for a 'stirring detective story'.
Is nothing sacred anymore??

Well, to the members of the First Existential Church of the Warm Fuzzy who've posted on this thread, no.
