"Still, you won't find this novel anywhere but the 'fiction' section."

I know I know, it's just fiction...but consider this, what if someone were to write a book about someone who is very sacred to you in your own family. And this book is full of lies and half truths about that family member and saying things that could spread embarrassing false rumors about this person and your family. But the writer tells you don't worry it's just fiction. Would the fact that its just fiction lesson your passion for trying to get the truth out so people are not taken in by it, and maybe even try to do your part to convince people not to buy it?

When you put it that way, it's easy to see your point.

However, consider too that the church certainly has culpability in fathomless scandalous events...beginning with wars...ongoing with pedophilia...

I wouldn't speak for Brown, but I read quite a bit of that in his book, if only between the lines!
