Dan Brown claims on the first page that "all descriptions of artwork, architecture, documents and secret rituals in this novel are accurate,” indicating the book is based on historical fact.

Most the people I have talked to who have read it, think that only the characters are fictional.

dan brown wants to make money, controversy is a cash cow to him. if all of the characters are fictitious, doesn't that make it a piece of fiction?

I know people who really believe this is true. They are people that are looking for anything to justify within themselves a reason to not have faith. If this is what they need then I guess they will have to go to their grave with it. But I have to say that I have never met a faithless person that is truly happy. They will rally around this movie, point to it and somehow convince themselves that Jesus fathered French royalty. How pathetic.
