Thus, I approached Deception Point with much the same hopes for pleasuring reading as I did those books, though I came away from the book greatly disappointed. This being said, I will reiterate that I did find Da Vinci highly entertaining, much like I did Angels and Demons. Ron Hubbard’s own Scientology-a religion he admits he made up-and would only attract those faithless followers desperate enough to say, “Yes, I will commit myself to a religion that’s based on a novel.” A third “religion” in a similar vein might be that of the Jedi. The twisted religion that views Christ as a fornicating, sin-filled man is no more plausible than L. Apart from causing some readers to ask themselves poignant doctrinal questions, all the Christians accomplished in responding to the book was to give Dan Brown extra publicity for a thread of fiction he developed in his own brain, a thread he based off of many centuries of heresy. So I read Da Vinci in 2006, and not only did I learn what was going on regarding all the fuss, I was also thoroughly entertained.īriefly on Da Vinci: while I totally see the heresy and lunacy of this man’s fictional gospel, I do not see the wisdom in all the fuss the Christians brought to the table. Anyone who brings as much attention to the fiction world as Dan Brown did with The Da Vinci Code deserves a little of my own attention, if not for the sake of entertainment, then at least for the sake of knowing what’s going on.
