Well, like I said. The book publisher, the author, the movie studio want your controversy. It will put more butts in the seats, more people in the store buying to see what the fuss is about. You folks can go try and save some poor fools who believe fiction is real from ignorance...good luck with that. What you will succeed in doing is putting more money in Dan Brown's fat little wallet and all those people you are going to educate will still believe what they are going to believe. Only you are going to give more of them the chance to get curious because of your controversy. Have fun.
I hate to tell you this, but a Christian friend of mine loaned me the book before I ever heard of the controversy. It was a best seller before anyone ever thought of debunking it. And lots of people were believing in the historical accuracy, while knowing that the actual plot was fiction, before the anti-Da Vinci Code books came out. You're confusing the cause and the effect.
Why is it that you don't want people exposing the lie?
Nobody has called for the book to be banned.
Nobody has called for the publisher or the booksellers to be boycotted.
People are just calling for those who know the truth to tell it.
And that seems to bother you.
Why?
Shalom.
