I just wanted to let everyone know that I have given in. When the Da Vinci Code first came out, I said I wasn't going to read it. Why waste my time. Well, over the past couple of weeks, I have decided I'm going to read it and write a review. I'm also going to do some "defense" of Christianity; however, I don't know how much I'm going to do. Basically, doing too much with this is elevating this book above what it is…a work of fiction. Should historians write rebuttals to the fact that Tom Clancy wrote a book where Jack Ryan becomes President of the US? Should they talk about how the plane never crashed into the US Capitol? Clearly not…these events were a work of fiction. Same with Dan Brown's book. I haven't made up my mind how much I will write, but I'm planning to document what I do write well. |
