The Da Vinci Code

While I have never read the book, with the release of the blockbuster film coming out I have come across some great links that counter this “fictional” novel. I admit I like Tom Hanks and Ron Howard and mystery movies really intrige me, but the temptation to see this movie is low. Whether or not someone calls it fiction, I would never go to see a movie that made my wife out to be a liar, a sexual deviant, or anything less than who she is. With that in mind, why would I want to go and be entertained by fiction about my savior that makes him to be a liar, not God, and eliminates him from being my savior. But it is just fiction many will argue. I still cannot handle Christ being portrayed in this way any more than I could handle my wife being slandered in the name of fiction. But it goes beyond this. To slander another human is one thing, but to slander God is blasphemy and breaks the first two of the 10 commandments, whether done in the name of theology or fictional entertainment. Now I am not on a campaign against this film, but I do hope that those who love Christ will stop and consider what they allow themselves to be entertained by.
Here are some links that take a more theological look at the Da Vinci Code:
