I started reading The Da Vinci Code around Thanksgiving, right after I read Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. Well shortly into it, I decided maybe this is just a little too much of dear Dan for a bit, so I put it down.
Well yesterday I got back into it. I still can't say I like it, but this whole thing about a woman being in the Last Supper painting and Mary Magdalene being married to Jesus definitely has rattled the whole belief system. I'm sure the atheists are smiling at that one.
I do know the Bible, but I admit to total ignorance on "lost gospels". Such as the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, which I did read today. Not much there, too many "missing chapters".
I guess this is something I'm going to have to search out on my own. Again. Thanks Dan Brown, I really didn't need this.
Last night I finished "Angels & Demons." Facinating book. I have three or four others to read then I will try "The Da Vinci Code."
Posted by: zenwanderer at December 15, 2003 04:07 PMBe careful. Most of the "lost gospels" are almost universally acknowledged to be bogus.
There are a few that are sort of controversial. A few hold out for the Gospel of Thomas, for example, as having deserved to be in the Bible. But most are known trash.
I do have a book of many of these you can borrow some time if you want to. The most laughable is the Gospel According to Pilate, which is very obviously silly from multiple angles, but kind of interesting to read.
