Have you heard of the Da Vinci Code written by Dan BrowN?
Well, in the event you've been living in a cave, been busy mugging for exams, or simply floating on a raft somewhere in the Pacific Ocean as part of a farsighted experiment testing man's ability to thrive once denied new episodes of Friends, then u are missing up on a damn good conspiracy thriller.
I read it while I was in Taiwan and it left a lasting impression on me. I guess it touches on enough strands of popular speculation and mythology to captivate readers and because simply put, Everybody loves a conspiracy.
Dan Brown introduced many theories in this book such as the secret behind Mona Lisa's smile, the Holy Grail and the divine and marital status of Jesus. I was thoroughly impressed and i've got to say that dan brown made symbology cool the way Indiana Jones did for archaelogy.
But a book containing controversial topics regarding Jesus (perhaps the most enigmatic and inspirational leader the world has ever seen), is bound to receive some form of backlash from the Christian community.
And there are already quite afew books to de-bunk the Da Vinci Code. Which i though was actually pretty amusing and exaggerating. Accept the fact that people can read something for enjoyment and not mistake fiction for fact.
Dan Brown wrote a book. Not a Bible. Get a life.
"If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead than you will be saved"
We humans just love to make things complicated though.
