Jesus really did not die on the cross and rise, he married Mary Magalene a woman who is venerated via various sceret codes ansd rituals and clues by a fanatic secretive cult of the goddess
because she married and had a child with Jesus
who really was a charlatan or a nutter
because he wasn’t divine and all that stuff about his dying on the cross and ascending to heaven was a hoax
so....so...so his descendants are worshipped and venerated and people kill and die to protect their secret bloodline...
are you with me camera guy?
uh, why?
The logic of this entire plot...escaped me
Its all fun as a fiction novel, but the church is giving this way too much attention, it is making it far more popular. There are hundreds of books that use this plot, but when the church decides to go after it, suddenly, they become best sellers.
