What Do You Think Of The Da Vinci Code? Who Cares?

[The Duck]

The Da Vinci code is the latest salvo in mass marketed conspiratorial junk that creates a counterfeit cultural zeitgeist and diverts focus from the real conspiratorial agendas that are unfolding before our own eyes not on a movie screen or a fictional paperback but in reality.

The main theme of this work of fiction that many frivolous fools have chosen to take as fact, is that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene and fathered a child. This is based on one sentence from a heretical Gnostic gospel from the mid-second century in which it is claimed Jesus kissed Mary Magdalene (that proves it for me).

Bill Barnwell's excellent summary debunks the myths promulgated by the movie and the book.

Despite the utter vacuum of credibility the film holds, the cultural zeitgeist has dictated that you have to waste time acquiring detailed knowledge of this issue and be able to express an opinion on it.

Don't bother.

To steal a gag from the late Bill Hicks, "piece of shit, walk away."

By promulgating an unceasing drumbeat of attention, the establishment has programmed people into obsessing about this bile.

South Korean Christians protest the Da Vinci Code.

Don't waste your time debating this garbage with anyone, refuse to even address the matter other than to tell them it is the latest bread and circus act to follow Michael Jackson and the Raelians and should be vehemently dismissed by anyone with more than two functioning brain cells.

The individuals that flap their gums until kingdom come about secret societies running everything around the time of Jesus are usually loathe to entertain such a notion that it could be happening today. People are receptive to mass marketed conspiracy theories mired in fiction but don't you dare for a second suggest there could be a real conspiratorial agenda unfolding all around us, that's just crazy!

Rather than embrace their responsibility to truly understand the architecture of power that controls their own life these imbeciles would much rather bury their head in Holy Blood, Holy Grail or Harry Potter because deep down they know it's just fiction.

They would rather tease themselves with the imaginary monster in the cupboard while turning their head away from the stomping elephant in the living room. This childish mentality is the reason why the vast majority remain as spectators in life, forever dazzled by the latest trend and distracted from becoming truly engaged in something that really matters.

This movie acts as a steam valve to distract people's gut concerns about shadowy entities controlling world events in reality today. What does this tell us about how the culture creators channel our natural human curiosity into dead end debates and contrived cul-de-sacs?

[WDchris]

you make a lot of valid points.

[MaddCaz]

yea who REALLY gives an ish about DVC?

[KRL]

The Catholic Church is corrupt and everyday you hear about another priest molester or taking the basket cash for personal enjoyment.

Bunch of scammers.

[GoodGuy]

The Da Vinci code sucks. Dan Brown got rich by saying lies.. LIES.

Da Vinci rocks.

[Grapesoda]

why on earth would anybody base and portion of their life or consider any relevace gained from a movie? that's the real question . . . so I'm guess I'm saying your '$10 words' and convlouted dialog are most certainly wasted in this post . .

over and out -bmb

[madawgz]

im not going to see it, heard some fucked up boring things...

[Waveu6410]

tonight all i've seen on tv from cnbc to the tonight show is that the movie is a flop and maybe the biggest in years.

But the REAL question remains - how was the popcorn?

It's a film, is it good or bad? I will put as much thought about it being real as I did with Star Wars.

Was Jesus married and a father? 99.9% certain he was, it was VERY normal for a Jewish man in those times to marry and be a father. The only acceptable ones who were not were hermit monks who lived on a mountain.

Did he marry Mary Magdalene? No one knows and definitely not Dan Brown.

Did the Crusaders find proof of his bloodline? The Muslims were either fighting the Crusaders or selling the religious artifacts. How many came back with relics? It was big business and the Crusaders would not of known if the "Proof" was 1100 yeays old or from last week.

This book would of sunk without a trace if the Vatican had not shouted about it, but they obviously learned from that and now shouting about the film. Having your "sort of" anti Catholic story marketed by the Catholics, for this I take my cap off to Brown.

Bit like having Bush market us.

the "Da Vinci Code" is a good fiction book and you don't have to take it seriously.

I'm just waiting to see Kandah respond here with the same level of convoluted verbiage he 'used' in the first post. Judging by his usual posts, that text was likely borrowed from a movie review site somewhere.

[LittleSassy]

man...the story is just based on the authors POV and beliefs...fictional. cant believe even the Vatican would care about it

[Young]

Why don't you give credit to those that you copy and paste from?

That is the REAL question

Damn.
Beat me to it.

[Star 69]

Anyway I will take a look "Da Vinci code"

[Young]

bump for a moron who steals pics from the internet, concocts outlandish story's, and steals articles in the hopes that people will believe that he was smart enough to right them.

and all for what?

[The Ghost]

I watched it last night and really liked it. Thumbs up

[Miguel T]

Loved it.

If it's all right with you I'm going to watch the film myself and make up my own mind. I don't need you to tell me not to watch it or even "address the matter" simply because you don't like its content.

Personally I think the "work of fiction that many frivolous fools have chosen to take as fact" is that some bloke called Jesus was born to a virgin and fathered by a non-human entity.
