"Men have died to protect it...

You've read the book, now don't see the movie-- that's the message from the Church about the upcoming film of the spectacularly successful novel, The Davinci Code.

It is a message that has been hidden for centuries...

Hidden because the church says it's wrong. In fact, close to blasphemous and is doing everything it can to supress it. The book which has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide purports to tell the story of how Jesus actually had a child with Mary Magdelane, the fallen woman he had saved. And how the church and its adherents have done everything including murder to conceal that alleged fact.

No matter what you believe...

The Catholic Church believes the book is so dangerous it discharged the senior cardinal to refute it. And now faced with the prospect of a major movie starring Tom Hanks, Catholic groups have been pressuring the producers to change the plot, particularly the bit about the member of the conservative and secretive Catholic sect, Opus (?) Day (?) who was the villain of the piece.

The only impression that some people'll get of Opus Day or Catholicism will be this very off-the-wall idea of eh... a strange, Machiavellian, dark set of people who are spending their entire lives wandering around ancient cathedrals murdering people which obviously is...is very far from the truth."


I've had enough. Someone else can continue with the rest. :)

Thanks for the points, babe.

You're pretty patient to do all that (above).
