Hard to say from the text I'm reading, it possibly COULD be real, but I really cannot deduce from what I read.

Read the book with an open mind but also with caution.  I am sure that the book is not entirely worthless, although I have not read it.  I just read the synoposis and reviews on amazon.  However, I am familiar with books like this: Benedictine monks going on a spiritual journey, often making use of Buddhist and other Oriental thought.  \n\nIn my honest opinion, I believe that books like this reflect a great thirst in the West, even in long-standing churches, for genuine spirituality.  I think the amenities of popular culture as well as over-rationalization, among numerous other factors, have eliminated to a great extent a sense in Western culture of the sacred.  My advice: look into Orthodox Christianity, or perhaps at traditional Catholic spirituality.  Of course, if you're Protestant, this might be an issue with you, and if so I can't help you!

Hayden, i am a religious studies major and among the things i am looking into right now is contemporary Christmas as compared to biblical Christmas.  it is so hard to know with the Christian bible if ppl mentioned are actually in it b/ of the translations..... as of yet, i have read nothing of Jeannette or Isabelle.\n\n**In its original form i have great respect for Christianity (although i am not Christian), but so many things have been lost and others picked up form diff cultures. the tree and the date are specifically from paganism. the snowman and such (wintery characters) actually originated here in the West. aside from the nativity scene which would be grossly incorrect historically, very little is taken from the bible.\n\n i would urge today's Christians to resume Christmas as it was intended. i think you have a beautiful faith and if you believe it to be from God then changing and adapting should not be necessary. moreover, Hayden may be slightly bold in the way he addresses his topics, but his challenges should only allow true Christians a chance to really learn their bible. It is a shame how much is believed by the majority of Christian ppl that is in fact untrue.\n\npeace and blessings to all\n\nps in response to your question....it was scriptural. and if you find anything interesting or if you'd like to see any of my research feel free to email me.

The part with the angels is very true. The ending will be as amazing as it says, but some parts such as the Beasts (The ones John saw come out of the water) represent different counties that are still here today. It is literal yet very symbolic. Pray to GOD for understanding and read it again sometime. It should then become very clear to you.

Joshua.  People like you crack me up.  Really!  You argue about biblical-specific entries and events as if they were factual and undeniable.  "written 4000 years ago"  On what?  Notebook paper?  Do you have some copies of those 4000 year old writings?  Do you have some secret text that nobody else has ever seen?  Are you on heroin or acid?  What's your trip?  None of the authors of the NT witnessed the alleged resurrection.  No matter how you stretch it, there are no actual accounts of it.  Most of the NT was created and written in 320AD under the direction of Constantine the Great, and its puirpose was NOT for historic accuracy.  Its purpose was to create a doctrine at the Council of Nicea that all factions of religious doctrine could agree upon and pull everyone together.  Why does it appear that there only a few people that post here regularly who actually know this?  Is your only source of "history" the Bible itself?  Are you crazy enough to use the Bible to prove the Bible?  Talk about illogic!\n\nThe original poster is correct -- if the notion of god portrayed in the bible is accurate, then there is no need for "free will" -- God already knows how things turn out.  He already knows who chooses free will and who doesn't choose free will, how they act, and who the sinners are and who goes to hell.  He already knows the choices people made in the past and what they'll make in the future.  He already knows how things will turn.  Already been there.  Outside of the time line?  Fine, state it however you wish.  It's still the same.  He's all knowing.  He knows how the "souls" will turn out. There's no need for a test on earth.\n\nThe question is not flawed at all.  Your assumption that the Bible is incontrovertible is flawed, and your statements of biblical myths as assertion are ridiculous.  It is one of hundreds of unprovable myths on this whole planet, full of fatal flaws, like the one this question raises.

I just asked a question about the Montauk Project myself.I read the books.They seem to be very technically correct about a lot of the  things they talk about.So who-ever wrote them wasn't an idiot or a nut making up a story. I believe that the things spoken of in the stories are more than likely possible.Whether or not they actually happened as it is written,or if we really do possess this secret technoIogy, I don't know.In a way though,I kind of hope it isn't completely true,because the story of these projects are filled with abuse and inhuman treatment of human beings in the name of scientific developement and whatever else.

It is a hoax.  And even if someone decided it would be a good story to tell, remember that Satan is the Prince of Darkness and has come only to steal, kill and destroy.  He will use any deception, lie or method he can to discredit God.  What a lovely way to divide God's children, believers and non-believers alike.  There is nothing that Satan can do to defeat God.  Satan is pretty dumb when you think about it.  He has read the end of the book (Revelation) and knows he will not defeat God, yet he keeps trying anyway.  \n\nInsanity is when you keep doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.  I'd say Satan is definitely hovering around insanity.  \n\nDon't forget the furor Passion of the Christ and Da Vinci Code caused.  Interestingly enough, there was much to say prior to the release of both movies, but once the movies were released, all the dialog stopped and nobody really gives a flip now.  \n\nBe well, be blessed and find your peace in God.

Even for the books we do know for sure who wrote it, such as some of the letters of Paul, you still have to ask this question.  Just knowing who wrote it does not mean that you automatically know if it is true teaching.\nAnd if you don't know who wrote it, this does not mean it is not true teaching.  Knowing the name of a human author really has little bearing on whether their writing is true.\n\nYou have to look at the content.  Is it accurate with what we know from other accurate sources?  Is it self-contradictory?  Does it contain false prophecy?  Does it contain questionable moral teachings?  You just have to examine it with these types of questions in mind.

I am also addicted to it. I find myself constantly telling people about it. I was just wondering the same thing myself. I have looked, but I'm unable to find it. You should try ordering the book off of their website, I get the impression this book has old secrets in it.

Many people seem to have a problem remembering that this book is fiction.  Some Christians take offence because it is important to them that Jesus was a virgin all his life.  I think these people somehow see sex -- even in marriage -- as "dirty" -- otherwise, why would it sully Jesus' purity to have a wife and children?  They seem to think the possibility detracts from His perfection.  \n\nFor me, it makes no difference.  Jesus is the Messiah, the Christ, whether He was married or not.  And the possibility of His bloodline continuing seems to me to be important only to those who think His blood contained some special DNA that would be passed down.  Unless that DNA somehow makes people better people, more likely to love others and change the world -- what difference does it make?  And from what I see of the world, any DNA that makes people better has been as diluted as the Truth He brought (sorry, Christians).  It would be nice if His Teachings existed and were followed in their entirety, but if they were, the world would not be in the state it is in now.\n\nI don't read too much into "The Last Supper" -- it's a painting, not a photograph!  It was done centuries after the fact and the people shown *represent* the people who were there but do not look like them -- since no one knows what they looked like.  If the figure to Jesus' left looks feminine, it is only because da Vinci painted it that way -- and reflects da Vinci's beliefs and/or skill -- not reality.  \n\nI enjoyed the book, but really don't understand the furor.  There are so many books that are more interesting and controversial -- but many of them aren't fiction.  :-)

I think they were killed in the flood, but have you ever read (I think) in Job about the leviathan?  Sounds so much like a brontesaurus or dipladucas doesn't it?  People try to say it's a croc, but it's  nothing like a crocodile.  Also Psalms 74 says He lopped off the heads (plural) of leviathan, and made mincemeat of the dragon.  I'm not trying to make people believe anything, it's just one of the things I wonder.

Just saw the movie today. I am a Christian and wanted to see it so I knew more to answer the questions that I have been asked by friends. The hardest thing I find to comprehend is why are people being so blown away with it, when it is clear that it is a work of fiction? It is a fiction book, that has just been made into a fiction movie. Dan Brown himself states that the book was fiction and is not based on fact.\n\nJust goes to show how cunning and conniving the devil can be.\n\nAs for the movie, didnt really enjoy it. A bit over the top.
