Does anyone believe this offensive nonsense?


And why?

Dan Brown is an offensive hack who is seeking to undermine an entire religion just for kicks.

I'm not even a Christian and I think the relentless way Brown and the makers of these films try to undermine Christianity is disgusting. Imagine what would happen if someone wrote a similar book seeking to undermine Islam.

It's fiction . Just like the bible . So relax and enjoy .

How do you know the Bible is fiction?

I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!

Atheists and agnostics who are scholars disagree with you.

I didn't watch the movie, because I couldn't get through the unintelligible, self-serving vomit that was the book. I rarely give up on a book, but this one I threw across the room. Thank God I didn't spend any money on it.

I can't believe Tom Hanks stooped to act in not one, but *three* works by the highly deluded Dan Brown.

reply

Wait. If you couldn't get through the book AND never saw the movie, then why are you here? What compelled you to go to the movie's message board?

I'm not at all criticizing you, I'm just curious.


I don't want the world. I just want your half.

3? I thought he was only in 2 of them.

Someone once asked me if, as a Christian, I was offended by this movie. I said no but that's because I understood the hidden message. When they asked me what the hidden message was, I said: That it's a work of fiction and not meant to be taken as reality.

Still stand behind this.

These ideas have been going around since way back in the second century. I really don't understand why everybody suddenly got into such a tizzy just because they showed up in a modern-day book and movie. People really need to become more familiar with history.

reply

I don't either. It's fiction based on those old ideas, many of which have been debunked or for which there is no proof. People also need to inform themselves about the difference between truth and fiction. The film is not promoting anything, just telling a fictional story based on a novel. So many people get riled up over nothing.

EXACTLY..... Do the same to Islam

INFIDEL! Admiral Akbar! Admiral Akbar! I just put a jihad on you for that blasphemy!

Well, Christianity is a lod of shite

reply

No. Nobody has ever believed a word than Dan Brown ever wrote.

Those who like his books are just enjoying the adventure sprinkled with art history, he's not an author that anyone can take seriously.
