somewhere in between these two. It was about Par for the course, its worth seeing if youve read the books, if you havent it might be a bit slow or obvious. Not bad, nothing particularly memorable about it. But if you take away the fact taht the books caused so much religious turmoil then it wouldnt have been as good either.

I dont know why people wont see the movie or read the novel... It's a fiction novel/movie, these are his opinions of his religion.

I agree.

Lies, he basicaly did this just for the turmoil. Like you said, not worth it if it was not for the turmoil it caused. We never would have heard of it if it had not had the turmoil. Unfortanuatly the truth is not as good as lies.

Iron- this was not the first book about this subject. It has been speculated for ages now, the first "popular" book was Holy Blood, Holy Grail. I doubt Dan Brown wrote this book to cause commotion. I have read both this book and Angels and Demons, why? Because i thought they were good books, not because of the "turmoil," but becuse they were good books of fiction.

2nd- if the movie had come first it would have been double the commotion about it, but because the book came first it let it subside a bit because everybody was over the inital shock. The movie would have been just as big as it has been, and mabey larger.

I know about Holy Blood Holy Grail, and again, I think, MY OPINION, is that these books (not just Dan Browns) were written more for the controversy then truth. If you look back through history, even with non Christian historians ( Pleny the Younger, Joecephus (sorry for bad spelling)), you will note how well the life of Christ was documented. You will NEVER read in PROVEN historical documents that Christ had any type of "relationship).

Second, Dan Brown messed up several important facts, facts that are basic knowledge (again not just Christian, but documented history), why? Possible to make things seem the way he wanted, or he does not know what he is talking about.

And I agree good book. For what it is. A story. FICTION. NOT FACT.

in large if it hadnt been for all the commotion it would have likely just fallen into a pigeon hole
