Good Lord, man. If you were reading what I've written, you'd know that I am denying that vehemently. ~ Xenalyte Woody.

You'd think that the people who sell the book wouldn't make such lying claims about the book.

(Deep cleansing breath . . . serenity now.)

As I said in three of my posts, the authors do not claim anything. They posit a possibility based on an interpretation of the historical evidence, which is what historians do for a living. Some are right, some are wrong, some are ignored, some are tinfoil-worthy.

The Baigent/Leigh/Lincoln books (along with those by Graham Hancock, Werner Keller, Roger Shattuck et al) are much like those books that ask, "What if the Civil War never happened? What if Hitler didn't off himself? What if we'd assassinated Castro? What if Kennedy lived?"

Bottom line: you don't have to read it, so don't worry about my literary interests. (Or my faith, although I'm touched at your concern.)
