Personally I have not read the book. And I would not.

The real shame here I think is that from the description of the book, that Jesus had sexual relations with blah..blah..blah is disgusting.

That Christians would read this blasphemous book or pay for it is the real shame.

Reminds me of St. John Bosco’s dream: “The two columns in the sea.”

In May of 1862 St. John Bosco related a dream in which he described the Catholic Church as a large ship, being attacked on all sides by smaller ships, some of them trying to sink the large ship with “cannons, rifles, incindiary materials, arms of all kinds, and also with books.”

Two columns rose from the sea, one, a statue of the Immaculate Virgin with a sign: “Auxilium Christianorum-Help of Christians” and the other a Host of great size which had a sign “Salus Credentium-Salvation of the faithful.”

The great ship anchored to the two columns and all her enemies were afterward destroyed.

St. John Bosco afterward said this after asking what people thought of the dream: “The enemy ships are persecutions. The most serious trials for the Church are near at hand. That which hs been so far is almost nothing in the face of that which must befall. Her enemies are represented by the ships that tried to sink the principal ship if they could. Only two means are left to save her amidst so much confusion: DEVOTION TO MARY MOST HOLY and FREQUENT COMMUNION, making use of every means and doing our best to practice them and having them practiced everywhere and by everybody.”

I don’t think we should fold our arms and say “it’s just a movie, big deal.” All these things need to be fought against. I think that if you love Jesus Christ this is another affront to His Divinity. And we all need to speak out and fight against all of these things.
