Title: What is so startling about this silly book?
Product review: I am amazed that so many people have been taken in by this trite, poorly written novel. The supposedly explosive subject matter is common knowledge to anyone who is evenly reasonably well-read, and it has been discounted long ago. Books like Holy Blood, Holy Grail, and a plethora of others about Mary Magdalene are based on much spurious information and an abundance of paranoia about and downright hatred of Catholicism. It is easier for most people to comfort themselves by bashing the Bible than for them to read it and live it. I am surprised that I hear intelligent people trumpeting these half-baked theories about a Catholic conspiracy. I thought we left that garbage back in the days when it was commonly believed that Catholics ate babies, drank blood, and stored guns under their churches so they could eventually take over the world. Even my Wiccan friends are laughing at this one!!
