BTW the questions you are asking are incredibly irrelevant

If you are referring to questions about such things as the marriage of Christ theory, I would have to agree with this statement, even though his questions and mine about this are the same. I cannot speak for Hodar, but as for myself, while I know that this whole theory and line of speculation is irrelevant with regards to faith (in fact, I think we have been saying that all along), I am interested in it simply as a matter of curiosity. No reason beyond that. Whether it be true or false will have no bearing upon my faith... will change nothing of what Christ told us or how I think about it.

Good point. I did exercise a poor choice of words. My apology to Hodar and others.

IMHO, if one advances to say a Jr. High school equivolency in Christian faith, there are thousands of other pertinent issues that would evolve from any speculation of the DiVinci Codes, yet, the issues publicized by the DiVinci Code, IMHO, are at less than a third grade equivolency in Christian faith or learning.

For this reason, I find the questions posed by the DiVinci Codes to be rather irrelevant in one's study of Scripture. Even worse, those NatlGeographic and History Channel specials which discuss many of these same topics, all display an array of PhD and worldly experts in religion, yet most appear as though they lack even the beginning faith of a recently regenerate spirit.

It's sortof like looking at 500 cable TV channels with nothing to watch. I'm amazed by the lack of faith displayed by powerful worldly institutions when they stumble upon issues that actaully have some significant interest amongst more mature faithful believers.
