Many who have read the New York Times bestseller The Da Vinci Code have questions that arise from seven codes-expressed or implied-in Dan Brown's book. In Breaking the Da Vinci Code: Answers to the Questions Everyone's Asking, Darrell Bock, Ph.D., responds to the novelist's claims using central ancient texts and answers the following questions:Who was Mary Magdalene? Was Jesus Married? Would Jesus Being Single be Un-Jewish? Do the So-Called Secret Gnostic Gospels Help Us Understand Jesus? What Is the Remaining Relevance of The Da Vinci Code? Darrell Bock's research uncovers the origins of these codes by focusing on the 325 years immediately following the birth of Christ, for the claims of The Da Vinci Code rise or fall on the basis of things emerging from this period. Breaking the Da Vinci Code, now available in audio, distinguishes fictitious entertainment from historical elements of the Christian faith. For by seeing these differences, one can break the Da Vinci code. Christianity History Literary History & Criticism

The Da Vinci Code is a good work of fiction. Like most works of fiction it is based on some part truths and the rest is made up.This author seems to think that it is all part of a great plot to take people away from Christianity (not that the church needs much help in that today). And he takes much of the book to build up to that - it is fairly easy to see the way the book is heading from early on. The last chapter is the advertisment for Christianity and has nothing whatsoever to do with the Da Vinci Code.
The arguments deployed are weak and could just as easily be argued the other way to prove the theory. If this is the best that the church can come up with to disprove the Da Vinci Code there must be more to the Code that I thought. I started listening to the book with an open mind, suspecting that there would be some elements of truth in Brown's book and much made up. I am now left thinking that I want to read more to learn more about the Code; but not by this author.
Not a book I would recommend!
