excerpts from the book The Holy Grail, a fiction story, but

Introduction
This was one of the many books which had come out in the last forty
years purporting to disprove Jesus as believed in the Catholic
Faith. It began with Celsus in the 2 nd Century and continues to
today. The Pass over Portrait of a scheming false saviour in a
Golgatha scenario in 1966, when Jesus pretended to be dead but had
run away Nikos Kazantzakis The last temptation of Jesus book and
movie and S.G.F.Brandon Books Jesus the Radical Revolutionary of
the 60s.The 1973 The secret of the Gospel where Jesus is depicted
as a magician, who by the sleight of his hand is a Master magician
in the miracles.
In the book The Holy Blood, the Holy Grail(Lincoln and Leigh)
Jesus is supposed to have married Mary Magdalene and their children
persisted in the Merovingian dynasty of medieval France. The theory
line is the heart of the story line of the Da Vinci code and Dan
Brown uses the Holy Grail as the heart of his story line. Why has
the da Vinci code being sold millions of copies? In todays world:
(1) Weird stories sell (movies, books) (2) Sensationalism (murder,
mystery, intrigue involving the church(Lavender clergy with
impropriety), secret societies. These are perfect recipe for an
interesting thriller, especially if these are close to home, and
receives a captive audience. 3) Doubts in Faith. These have been
created by scandals in the Church in recent times (the lavender
clergy of priestly impropriety). Hence when one hears of something
wrong in the church, one has doubts that one is the right church,
with right beliefs, and with surety of ones salvation.
