I've tried to read this book (I can't continue with it) and I have watched the history channel along with other reviews on this....to say Jesus was having an affair or even married along with having a son....goes against everything in God's word. As Christians we are to believe Jesus was the sinless son of Almighty God and if not the very basis for Christianity has been destroyed. This is the whole point of this blasphemous book.
When are people going to understand there is a major attack against Christianity and what a more subtle way than to make people question the story of Christ Jesus?

Its fiction. To be honest, I believe that the Bible is mostly fiction too, and the Koran...
If the Chuch is afraid that a book or a movie is going to shake their faith than maybe their faith isn't that strong to begin with.

Going forth and 'multiply' is blasphemy? Jesus was called 'Rabbi', and at that point in time one of the requirements of being a Rabbi was to be married.
Whether or not Christ was married, does not affect his message, his purpose or his significane. Hypothetically, if we found his DNA, and could prove he had offspring, would that invalidate his message? I would say that his message is what matters.
