A lot of people believed the "Davinci code" was true, too. This is meaningless, as was Brown's little moneymaker piece of fiction. Pay it no mind.

Gee,
another new book? Mr. Pullman's been a busy, busy guy.

Agreed! I second that. That's where it's danger lies. I know several Catholic school teachers and fellow CCD teachers who read it and swear by it and other books like it. Or who recommend it to their students. My friend (a CCD teacher) bought copies in bulk (his earlier book and the Da Vinci Code) to send to her friends and family as Christmas gifts. It put a brief dent in our friendship as she was perplexed that I was 'one of those' who didn't believe it.
