breaking the Da Vinci Code

the content of the following post may be considered sensitive to some. therefore, pleases note that whatever follows up is read on the individual's on account.
yeah. im here to blog about the latest uproar on the Da Vinci Code that will be releasing next week. i know plenty are excited and are awaiting the showcasting of this movie. well, it is a great suspense movie, however bear in mind that this is a FICTION movie/novel. even Dan Brown says so. the historical reliability and accuracy of purported facts is very low. some facts in the Da Vinci; the movie the Da Vinci is named after Leonardo Da Vinci who drew the'Mono Lisa drawing' and there is a claim that he left clues of Jesus' romantic links with Mary Magdelene in the painting. the words found on the painting is 'so dark the con of man' the truth is, the sources of which Dan Brown obtained these information is from the gnostic gospels which lacks any grounds to take it too seriously. the gnostic gospels are were written by author who uses the name of the apostles to gain credibility.
the next claim in the Da Vinci Code is the'secret gospels'. it says that the bible is a book that was collated by constantine, a Roman Emperor and this Emperor on purpose suppressed the gnostic gospels that contained jesus' human traits to hide the real identity of jesus for political reasons. however, it is not true! the gnostic gospels were not included because the only books and letters that were associated with an apostle or associate were considered acceptable in the bible. the gnostic gospels were also branded heretic by other highly regarded church leaders and not constantine.
i surely hope this is a form of enlightment to those that have blindly believed whatever that you have read. many people tend to get taken in by whatever they see or read. however be that minority that gives an intellegent critique of the movie/novel. after watching the friction, look up the fact!
the above information is obtained from "Beneath that Smile"
