Of course it's a work of fiction, but so are many other books based on history. And I've read the 'Da Vinci Deception' along with many other books trying to make a killing by 'interpreting' what is essentially an excellent novel. I will go and see the film and hopefully I will enjoy it. Living 2 miles from Rosslyn Chapel and being a 'Friend of Rosslyn Chapel' I know how many thousands of people have been to visit it. God works in mysterious ways. How many of those people would normally set foot in a Church. Let's see the positives that will come out of this book and this film!!

Helen, I fail to understand your desire to see what is even admittedly by the author, a work of fiction. It's premise attacks the very core of Christian belief and attempts to cast doubt on the accepted accounts of Jesus' life, ministry and resurrection. There were enough detractors of Jesus who would have gladly spread any such improper goings on as is depicted in the various conspiracy theories that revolve around a physical bloodline from Jesus.
These theories have been around since the story was spread that Jesus' supporters stole his body to fake the resurrection. The sad part is that believers as well are being fed this line of garbage.

Helen, I suggest you read the "De Vinci Deception", before you see the movie. Please be an informed Christian before you allow yourself to be duped by this movie.

The Da Vinci Code is an orchestrated effort to slander and defame the Holy Roman Catholic Church. It is also a vicious attack on the divinity of Jesus Christ and the Holy Family. No other religious faith would be treated with such a lack of respect and viciousness. Hollywood would not dare show such contempt to any other faith. Regardless how hard Hollywood and others try to destroy the divinity of Jesus Christ, they will fail. Jesus is the one true God, today, tomorrow and forever! With regards to the Catholic Church, the faithful know, "that not even the gates of hell will prevail against it."

Da Vinci code is pure fiction and deeply offensive to the true believer! Wanting to see it is falling into Satan's trap, the master of deception!

I can't wait to see the Da Vinci Code. I think there is much more to all this than the Church wants to admit. To be perfectly honest, it wouldn't change my faith one little bit if it transpired that Jesus got married and had a family. After all, in the Jewish culture of the day, it would be most unusual for the first born male not to marry.

Of course we know that The Da Vinci code is fiction. Let's not turn this into a crusade against the ridiculous and a publicity arm for Sony.
