That's what gets me about this whole DaVinci Code thing. It's a novel, not a historical manual and people still get so engrained in the STORY that they start to beleive it.

A lot of theses same people believe that Mapes and Rather - con artists in the same league as Dan Brown - produced a legitimate document.

Ever hear of scientology???? A book written by a sci-fi author is now a religion...go figure. Lol

There are a lot of people who have zero education in history, much less CHURCH history. They are prey to what ever scam comes down the road.

Of course, Dan Brown going around saying that the publishers made him label it fiction, but it's really true, is not doing anything to help.

It's a new genre of literature called non-fiction fiction, similar to the books written by the Clintons.
