The Da Vinci Code - Separating Fact from Fiction


The book "The Da Vinci Code - Separating Fact from Fiction " was released in 2003 (March). This book by Dan Brown was a bestseller and it took very less time to make it to The NY Times besteller list. Book was equally popular in different parts of the world and you can realise this from the fact that the book was listed in the bestseller list of more than 150 countries.


In the book author highly claims to have giventhe world a fictional, fact-based conspiracy theory alleging “scientific evidence that theNew Testament is false testimony” (p.341.


I am not sure how many people will ask a question abou the title of the book. The title the Vinci code is takes from the fact that Leonardo Da Vinci , Isaac Newton and Victor Hugo all were member of a secret society whic was entrusted with the truth about Jesus Christ. The secret of this group (The Priory of Sion) is that Jesus had a daughter by Mary Magdalene, who according to the Priory, was the true Holy Grail who bore the royal bloodline of Jesus on earth.
