It is a novel novel. Only the guilty dog barks while no man pursueth...or some such. I enjoyed the novel and I am enjoying - hugely - the apologies.

And "War of the Worlds " was a fictional radio invasion from Mars. The problem as I see it. Is that the average person in America is so Biblically illiterate and so uninformed of the historical church that fiction and non-fiction will blend together. I am surprised real groups like Opus Dei have not gotten an injuction to either stop the movie of get the "disclaimer."
If that fails, I would try a multi billion dollar defamation of character suit after the movie comes out.

IT'S A NOVEL.........IT'S A NOVEL...

and they're doing it a BIG favor - such a plethora of free publicity.

On the one hand, they're screaming that it's anti-religious and then quote a poll that says: "poll found that 53 percent of the book’s readers said The Da Vinci Code aided their “personal spiritual growth and understanding.”

So which way is it?

I suspect it's the old 'ox gored' thing. Added to the very real, documented facts of the cover-ups, purges, book burnings, re-writings, additions, subtractions, and 100's of thousands slaughtered in the name of 'religion' - and the more recent discoveries unearthed added to the accessibility of research and information to any and all = and there are a lot of long kept secrets and deceptions coming to light. (Some crawling out from under rocks.)

It is making some folk very nervous and they are attacking. What they don't, however, seem to yet fathom is that the old tactics that worked so well for millennia, no longer do.

It's the old putting new wine in old goat skins thingy = the skins are spitting open - the wine is spilling out all over the place.

There's another analogy to all the screaming: "Methinks they doth protest to much." - which means people will, should, look at the finger pointer to see what they don't want looked at...
