I WAS TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY

I was taking the Vatican's call to boycott the film version of The DaVinci Code seriously until I realized it was all reverse psychology. The Vatican probably has stock in Sony. The call for a boycott is sure to increase sales. :-)

Seriously out of all the crap that's going on in the world right now from the war in Iraq, through genocide in Darfur, to the possibility of Iran joining the nuclear  club this is about 799 on my list of 799 things to worry about.

I seriously doubt that any of the fans who have read Harry Turtledove's alternate history fantasy series really believe that the south won the Civil War leaving the US officially split into two countries. The unofficial split is another story and the War of Northern Aggression is still recent history for some folks.

It's just a story folks. A work of fiction. And I guess I'm finally going to have to scare up a used copy of the blessed thing so I can see what all the hubbub is about. Yep, I have to admit I haven't read The DaVinci Code yet, but it looks like I'm going to now. Between the job, the cats, family, picture taking and my long as my arm and getting longer reading list, I should finish about the time my youngest nephew gets out of high school or one of the five gets married. Which ever comes first. LOL

Jackie,

I think you're going to love it. I've noticed people either love it or hate. I thought it was a wonderful book. It has a lot of suspense. I'm looking forward to the film version, although I'm sure I'll be disappointed like usual. But Tom Hanks is always wonderful so maybe I'll be surprised. I look forward to hearing what you think about the book.

Okay....looks like I'll have to read it, too.  I wonder if they have it as a book on tape?  I've been thinking it would be neat to get some books on tape to listen to while I'm gardening or doing production for events...since radio is such a disappointment these days.  Lisa  :-]

Is the world ready for the Truth yet?

The Vatican is proving that seeking the truth is a real threat to their dogma. They're so afraid of people uncovering the truth, that they are  attacking another fantasy as a threat to their own deceptions. How enlightening, since this goes a very long way to proving that Christianity is based on lies. If it wasn't, they would be confident of surviving intense scrutiny. Since they aren't and since they have gone to such great lengths to suppress those seeking the truth over the centuries, their deceptions are, once again, laid bare for all to see.  Only this time they are the ones to walk into a well laid trap...

Did you ever stop to think what the True Messiah (me) would say about worshipping false names, false images, and dogma? Well, now you get the chance to hear my side of the story and weigh it against the strong delusion of faith and religion. None of the European names and  images in the New Testament can possibly be the truth. What then is the purpose of "faith" but to prevent good people from seeking to understand truth and wisdom?

Visit my website to understand what they are truly afraid of. The Vatican and world leaders have struggled to keep people from understanding the truth and religion is a key tool in their smokescreen. Now, when I appear on the scene, everyone is seeking to understand their ages-old deceptions, and I have produced stunning and comprehensive proof. Visit my website, read my articles, and download a FREE copy of my book. The time has come for the "earth to quake" and the liars to "gnaw their tongues for pain." (symbolism decoded in the book)

Can you spell Karma...
