Amen the link.
Very funny book. Even my parish priest liked it.Jay in Phoenix wrote:For those of you out there with a sense of humor about the whole thing, Christopher Moore wrote the definitive (tongue very much in cheek) story of the missing years in the life of an adolescent Christ.
Being a direct descendant of Jesus Christ, I'm not too happy that they let the cat out of the bag, so to speak.Mike the Lab Rat wrote:Some of the folks in the rural backwoods area outside my little college town are getting their panties in a knot over the DaVinci Code movie...letters to the local paper about how it's an affront to true Christians, discussions on picketing cinemas that show it, etc.
Having read the book (and its historically fast-and-loose "nonfiction" predecessors Holy Blood, Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy) and being a churchgoing Christian, it is my opinion that if you get all hot-and-bothered and deeply offended regarding Brown's book or the movie...

More Important Issues:
--Find some non-pedophiliac candidates for the all-but disappearing priest minor leagues;
--Continue attacks on birth control;
--Somehow continue promoting the current "rottweillor of the Vatican" Pope as the LITERAL spokesman for God (the ancient Hebrew tribal "Jehovah" for those keeping score);
The DaVinci Code is excellent. A solid page turner with a fine message that people need to hear, feel, and think about.
For starters that the RCC is full of shit.titlover wrote:what's the fucking message?LTS TRN 2 wrote:Wolfman wrote:Christianity has been around for over 2000
