I was looking forward to the movie, The Da Vinci Code. Having enjoyed the book to its fullest, I hope the movie maintains the thrill and the pace, as the book does. Some stills and the trailer are released now.

LOTR was one such movie which delivered more than its bunch of expectations. It was particularly difficult to portray the complex structures like Minas Tirith, Helm's Deep, Black Gate and Rivendale. But the movie did a splendid job of keeping close to the book, as far as the description goes, in all its grandness and glory.

I did not find HHGTTG so much upto the mark. But in all fairness to the movie, Douglas Adams is much more enjoyable to read, rather than to watch in the movie. Although the mind-blowing concepts and plots are equally exciting as a movie or a book.

Now, lets see what DVC has to offer.

Rivendale?

Yes indeed. I've just finished my first reading of
the Davinci Code. It was thought provoking and a wonderfully fast read. What ther like-minded books might you recommend Kedar?

For like minded books, try these:

"Holy Blood Holy Grail" Non fiction, or allegedly so. Was so much the source for "Davinci Code" that the authors sued Dan Brown last month in the UK (they lost, he won).

"Map of Bones" Dan Rollins. Fiction, thriller, like Davinci Code, but this time the secret societies (more than one) have very well supplied & trained special forces...

You know, one thing that always makes me feel sad is the presence of unhistorical individuals who sit in a corner and smile, tapping the side of their nose with ... guile, after the latest ... "secret" has been made available to them in the ... public movies theaters.

Thought provoking? Well, yes, certainly. If by thought-provoking you consider ... UFO theories. But if one is really smart, they do not fall for the propaganda.

Here is the facts. Christ is recognised as God since the beginning; in the first Church. This is a fact that is certified not only by the Gospels, the Epistles of Apostle Paul (dated 55 AD) and the Acts of the Apostles (around 75 AD), but also by the monograms and symbols that have been found in the Catacombs that testify about Christ. We also have a multitude of Roman and first Christian texts dated in the first and second centuries AD. For example, Apostle Peter confesses: "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God"; Thomas exclaims: "My Lord and God", whereas the centurion by the Cross will declare: "Truly, this was the Son of God".

The truths that the gospels describe and teach are not an invention of Constantine. After all, it is historically documented that together with his favor towards Christianity, he did not oppose the idolatric religions. During the times of Constantine, the Church had almost completed apophatic dogmatics on the Triune God, the Person and God/Man nature of the Lord etc. Millions of people were already Christian or had already died after having undergone torture in the amphitheaters and Roman arenas all over the world; exactly because they believed in Christ as God. The words of Dan Brown are not only blasphemous for Christian -- they are downright insulting for the truth of the millions of people who died there.

Dan Brown, as Marie-France Etchegoin (a reporter for Le Nouvel Observateur) has discovered, had collected his source material from an extremist organization with seemingly far-reaching plans, that was presented as a state company in 1956 under the name "Priory of Sion". This organisation had created and promoted a series of documents that supposedly "proved" the wedding of Jesus Christ with St. Mary Magdalene. It is certain that they used elements from the teachings of the Gnostics, the Crusaders, the Purists, and of other such groups.

Dan Brown maintains that he is allegedly based upon the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Gnostic gospels while he rejects the texts of the New Testament.

However, the Dead Sea Scrolls do not contain any Christian references but only fragments from the Old Testament and other fragmentary texts, without any reference to Christ, or of course to the Holy Chalice. The well-known "gnostic pseudo-gospels" (of Thomas, Philip, Mary, the Egyptians and the Truth) borrow the names of the disciples of Christ in order to lend authority to their writings; something analogous to what happens with the texts of pseudo-Herodotus or of pseudo-Lucianus of ancient literature.

We are not certain what the contents of these pseudo-gospels initially were, although the majority of researchers place them from the 4th century AD onwards. This is because we do not have in our possession a sufficiently large number of codes for these pseudo-gospels in order to be able to authenticate their integrity. The same is not true however for the texts of the Bible, where approximately 25,000 codes contain the New Testament. The pseudo-gospels are derivative texts and not original to the Writ, while they also alter the New Testament.

However, the credibility of the New Testament has been proven scientifically. More specifically:

1) The number of codes in which the text of the New Testament has been kept (approximately 25,000) is incomparably larger than the sum of all extant ancient codes. Homer's Illiad has been saved in 643 codes, Horatius' works in 500, whereas Thucidides' History in only 8.

2) The antiquity of the codes saving the text of the New Testament for us is superior over that of the other ancient texts. The most ancient codes that have saved the text of the New Testament for us (the Sinaite, Alexandrine and Vatican codes) were written around 250 AD, in other words they are less than two centuries away from the time of the text's writing (50 - 70 AD). There is also "Papyrus 52", that contains a fragment of the Gospel according to John and is dated only a few decades later than the original.

On the contrary, the codes of Thucidides' History, that had been written in the 4th century BC, date in the 10th century AD, i.e. the extant copies of this History are found and saved 14 whole centuries later than the writing of the original.

Therefore, since no one disputes the credibility and validity of the aforementioned ancient texts, how is it possible to dispute the New Testament, when the scientific witness proves that it is "the most credible book in the world" (Greenlee J.H., Introduction to the New Testament Textual - Criticism, Grand Rapids 1964, p.16)?

Finally, I need to say that salvation in the Christian Church is not achieved through man's aristocratic, biological or kin relationship with Christ or His supposed ancestral offspring (essentially, this is a racist attempt of the occultist circles of Europe to enforce a supposed religious and blood aristocracy directly from the line of Christ), but through the by-grace participation of the uncreated energies of God, through which the Holy Spirit visits the faithful, when they live in repentance, humility and love.

Returning to the actual title "Dark is The Con of Man" instead of "Son of Man". Isn't this provocative? Where is the respect for other people's beliefs? Where is the same provocation for Allah? For Krishna? For Buddha? Why do all movies and media always concentrate against Christ? Why was the Priory of Sion trying to create evidence against Christ? And more to the point, who promotes all this anti-Christian campaign (whether you believe in Christianity or not)?

But since I mentioned Krishna and Buddha and the rest, how do they compare against Christ? Is there anything else extraordinary that we know about Christ?

The OT. The OT speaks about Christ. It contains 60 "obvious" and many "hidden" prophecies about Christ. Fact: all of them (about 300) fit the person of Christ. Fully and clearly.

Well, OK you won't dispute that. But you will add that perhaps that is random. The question is: can these prophecies also fit on other people? Something, somewhere must fit! And to every person, whom they tried to present him as a Messiah, some prophecy might fit!

Peter Stoner has written on this topic a book:

Stoner, P. - Newmann, R.C. Science speaks, Chicago 1976, pp. 106 - 112.

If we decide to apply modern techniques of the theory of probability to only eight prophecies we have the following result:

The probability for a man to live and make a reality to himself these 8 prophecies is 1 to ten raised to the power of 17. If we add all 300, we get a probability of 1 / 10^157 ! The US praesidium committee of scientists examined the results of this book and has accepted them.

Of course, anyone who is an honest investigator is welcome to read the above book. So, essentially we see that statistically speaking Christ becomes the only known man in the history of mankind with a pre-history.

The Christian Church supports that through the eons, Christ was being prepared from God to all generations. Even before the Jews. Aeschylus' "Prometheus in chains" was a tragedy presented in the early 5th century BC. The Prometheus who is chained symbolises the whole of humanity that suffers. At some point in the tragedy, Prometheus, placed on a crucifix shape on mount Caucasus reveals to Io, the eternally persecuted woman, the prophecy about the coming of the Savior, who will destroy all the other gods (i.e. demons), and He will come "thirteen generations later". Indeed, 13 generations later Christ was born.

So who hates Jesus Christ so much? Who can afford to promote all this attack in the USA? And why? Why not for other religious messiahs and leaders? Why is it always about Christ?

Why don't we see any negative comment on CNN about the Old Testament?
After all, the historical codes for the OT compared to that of the NT are negligible. Essentially, apart from the Septuagint translation of the Hellenistic Jews of third century BC in Alexandria, we have no Jewish text bar the Masoretic of the 10th century AD! Of course, the two texts are almost identical, and one can reason that since the Jews hated Christ, crucified Him and rejected Him that this lack of discrepancy clearly shows that the texts of the OT were not denatured (since Christians accept them). But it would still stand more to reason to reject the OT (that we have few sources for, the main Jewish one being a translation of the original that has been lost, appearing 14 to 15 centuries later). It makes no sense to reject the NT canon because the 25000 codes we have for it (the earliest a couple of decades away from the original, the latest a couple of centuries or three) make the NT *scientifically* - through the historical canonical method - the most credible book in the history of mankind. By far.

So let us wonder: who hates Jesus Christ so much and can afford to shape Hollywood's opinion and that of the media?

I will give two replies.

For the first one I will use the prophecies in the OT about Christ, we mentioned above. Here I will look at the prophecies on when Christ was to come in general, and then I will move to one specific one of interest.

Patriarch Jacob in Gen. 49:8-10 tells us that the sovereigns and lawmakers of Israel would come from the tribe of Juda; and that when Juda would be left without a ruler, Christ would come then, the expectation of the nations, the "light in revelation of the nations" (Lk. 2:32).

The first time that the utmost sovereign stopped being from Juda was when the foreigner Herod became king (who was an Idumean), which is when Christ was born. From AD 70 (destruction of Jerusalem) until 1948 there are no sovereigns or rulers in Israel!

Another prophecy: At the time when He comes, the fourth greatest kingdom after Nebuchadnezzar will rule (Dan. 2:1-49).
Indeed, we have: a) Babylonians, b) Persians, c) Greeks and d) Romans
We have many more such prophecies on the coming of Christ. Now I come to a particularly interesting. Haggeus 2:9 prophesies that the second temple will still exist at the time of His coming. The second and last temple was built by Zorobabel and decorated by Herod.

But why is it so important? It is important for those who know History. Only Israelites would go to the first temple. In the second temple, "the special ones of all nations" (Haggeus 2:8). In this second temple the Lord went too, as had been prophesied by Malachi (Mal. 3:1). The second temple was destroyed in AD 70 by Titus. It is not possible to establish a third temple. In order for a building to become Temple of God it needs a holy sanction. This sanction is done by a special ceremony by the priests. Israel today has no priests. They were all slaughtered in AD 70. And even if some Jew is "discovered" fom the tribe of Levi, he is not also a priest automatically. The Levite son would become a priest after a special sanction that would be performed in a formal ceremony by the archpriest. Establishment of priesthood outside the ordinances of the OT will not be possible by God. Holy temple will not be possible to be raised again in Israel. In AD 361, emperor Julian the Apostate attempted to raise the Temple; with this act of his he was trying to prove the relevant prophecy of Christ as false. But this attempt failed miserably. Despite the imperatorial will and protection. And despite the zeal of the Jews who came there from all over the world to help. Constant earthquakes, gales, hurricanes, lightnings and flames that would sprout from the foundations of the old Temple and would burn the machines and the masons, convinced the Jews and Julian that they should give up for their attempt was God-hated.

This event is confirmed to us in the same way by:

- the Christian writers John Chrysostom, Gregory the Theologian, Ambrosius, Socrates, Sozomenus, Theodoretus and Philostorgius.

[Do I hear sniggering? Ah yes, I also see tapping of nose. Guile. Ah yes.]

- the idolater Ammianus Marcellinus.

[Do I still see sniggering?]

- the Jewish rabbi Gedalia.

All of them lived close to the time of the events (AD 350 - 450) and for this reason the appropriate historical codes have a much greater validity, apart from the obvious fact that we also have non-Christian testifications of these events (by both Judeans and idolaters).

But I wrote this to show that throughout history, Jews who were not Christians but Judaizers, continued to hate Christ. And it is understandable of course based upon their religion, since to them Christ is a false prophet, a false god, and they hate him.

Of course the fact that Jesus would be a stumbling block for the houses of Israel is also prophesied quite clearly in the OT (e.g. Isaiah 8:14-15)

So my first reply is this. The second reply can be found in parts at the two daring individuals Prof. John J. Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago and Prof. Stephen M. Walt of John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, who in March 2006 produced a joint paper on the Israel Lobby and US Foreign Policy. Available online at www.lrb.co.uk (London Review of Books, Vo. 28, No. 6).

Of course, political analysts have known the strong political power that these lobbies exert on the US and its policies in the Middle-East. However, what the reader will not miss I hope is the obvious fact that, since they can shape media so well and it is a well-known fact that Hollywood has been in their hands since the beginning, a different pattern begins to emerge, esp. after the revelations of journalist Marie Etchegoin in France on the Priory of Sion. I hope now that you will also be able to see clearly through the purpose of the 'revelation' of the Gospel of Judas (true remnants of one of the gnostic gospels of which all Christian ecclesiastical writers speak of) came about during the period of Great Lent this year.

It should also be obvious why you will never EVER hear CNN say a single negative word about the OT or the Jews. You will however not be surprised to see CNN advertise its National Geographic "dare to explore" story using a foreground line "Jesus sells" with a background of "Prophets and Profits".

So go on. Tap your nose. Smile "knowingly". Yes, you "beat" Christ once again. He is an alien, a royal supremacist, he is the Jesus of Kazantzakis, or of Dan Brown. It is always against Christ.

Doesn't that make you, any of you, "thought-provoked" people wonder?

So enjoy these books. Jesus decoded, now we also have a new book by some David Tabor about the royal line of ... Jesus. Spin the same myths to suit the plans of some elitist zionists.

Smile "knowingly" while these same forces send your children to war in the Middle East, reshaping the area to provide a protectorate for their country.

They use you, and, amazingly, also make money from you while also passing on their religious hatred against Christians.

I am glad to see that your arguments are based upon placing labels but I really do not see any evidence fpr this. Also, bear in mind that I provided some scientific evidence; no serious archaeologist would refute the evidence on the NT given.

No I am not a Neo-Nazi, an anti-Zionist or an anti-Semite. The presence of certain elitist groups of zionists or other elements does not render Zionism evil per se. After all, the above greatly respected American political analysts are known to be philo-Zionist. And I should know.

The presence of some of these groups being of Hebrew origin also does not render this as being an anti-Semitic attack. If we follow your argument backwards, then we must also conclude that any talk against Arabs on e.g. terrorism or oil considerations (like it appeared in Michael Moore's film) implies that all these people are also "anti-Arabs"; which in fact would also make them in many cases anti-Semitic (for many Arabs also have Semite origins).

However the attidue of some of the "thought-provoked" crowd here, who immediately used the term "Xian" to describe me (a term used by all Satanists for example), is insulting and shows where in fact racism presents itself; in this case against Christians. In other words, this is an anti-Christian racist attack.

I also happen to strongly disagree with Islamist fundamentalism that has been the center of terrorism long ago it hit the US and its insulated citizens. However, I would equally disagree with the view that I am an anti-Arab, as I stated above.

Finally, I have close friends from both camps and I have discussed some things with them, calmly and in seriousness. I do not consider myself better than you, or anyone else, nor do I consider myself as superior than anyone else. That is up to you to believe or not.

Nevertheless, you cannot label me an anti-Semite or racist when I voice the opinion of many of my people (Israelis) against certain elite areas of our government. (Yes, did you know there are also Christian Arabs and Christian Jews in this world?) This is not about race.

However, the ideas about a "royal blood line of Jesus" are not hard to discern where they stem from, at least for the studied and serious scholars who read thoroughly.

Citizenship in Israel is based on the principle of blood kinship. If you are so knowledgable on Jewish affairs of state to be able to label me an anti-Semite on the spot, then you will have read Ha'aretz's articles "Majority of Israelis are opposed to intermarriage" (9/15/03) and "Better a Jew" (4/21/04).

Moreover, Israel does not permit Palestinians who marry Israeli citizens to become citizens themselves, and does not give these spouses the right to live in Israel. The Israeli human rights organization B'tselem called this restirction "a racist law that determines who can live here according to racist criteria". On the other hand, racism also runs rampart among Palestinian groups outside the Gaza strip, and the situation is indeed very lamentable.

Nevertheless, my argument is that if what I claim is "racist" than, by your definition, so are the Israel peace groups that I support. In fact, what is truly IRONIC about your "labelism" is that even the ADL has condemned this.

Please read "ADL criticizes law denying citizenship to Palestinians" (Ha'aretz, 5/08/03) by Nathan Gyttman and Yair Ettinger. So, according to you, placing the accusation of racism on certain elite groups (and where else are these found but in governments and powerful lobbies) is by definition fantasy and racism. Then the ADL who defends Jewish rights is also ... anti-Semitic.

Every country has its issues to consider, and so does mine. What we really do not wish for is frictions and true hatred to exist between people. It really does not help us that the situation only escalates with propaganda. But all this is irrelevant to you.

But IMO things will improve when socio-political and religious agendas do not enter the arena of slander; and in Dan Brown's case, as well as many others, this has been the case.

I apologize for "interrupting" your conversation and if my response was not optimal. However, I do not believe I swore against anyone, although I admit I was ironic to start with; but I hope some people will at least be able to see why. Nevertheless, the openly hostile and even racist attitude of some people (who bring swearing and labels against me) is proof enough to me what group this is, so I will leave you to your "discussions".

However, you got something right among your bigotry. I am a British Jew.

Does it really matter? I'm European and I’ve never been raised in religion, everything we celebrated was actually pagan at the root. We were close to the earth, gardened, and lived in woods and mountains. I frankly don't see the point arguing about some insignificant dead guy. Insignificant as in his close friends and family were probably the only ones at the time morning his death. I don't know, I don’t care. The one true god idea sounds like a metaphor, like ever-single thing in every single religious book. Why do we have to say these things are fact? They aren't fact until I see it, burning bush or not. Religion probably isn't based in linear thought and accepted facts by anyone; it's more personal in every culture. And what about every other culture on earth? Why do we always think we're at the center of it? Pasta, to compass, to guns, and freight boats, all that is china, and there is more. And why does it matter if jesus was the son of god or not, or if he was married? Who cares? If you feel the message is true for you, finding reason or meaning, or understanding about life, death and reality, good for you, nothing is holy and everything is holy, stop discriminating.
At the core it’s pretty simple. Daddy's gonna tell you all you need to know:
Live well.
Everything else is speculation.

I’m tired of hearing about Christianity and all that. All the hatred and self-righteousness comes from the convictions people have about what they think is true. I live a good life and am happy and I didn’t need to accept jesus into my heart or whatever. There are many roads to get to the same destination.

P.S:(pun) I did like the movie. I noticed that those who hadn't read the book liked it more then those who had. We are probably closer to what we imagine then to what we see for ourselves... I thought Sophie would have been a little larger, or that the birds scaring the driver where a little more "in your face" or that the music would have been a little bit more pumping. And I think the character development wasn't put into the plot with conviction. But I liked it. And all those protesting in front of the movie theatre... It's just a book, this one and the other one.

Just because you cite your criteria, that doesn't make it concrete. The topic is controversial, touchy, spiritual, and as such, open to interpretation as well. How old are you anyway, like sixteen?

this story is entertainment, i find it terribly troubling that everybody i talk to about it feels this superficial necessity to feel one way or the other about it. you would think dan brown not a writer, but a revolutionist bent on raising a holy civil war in the middle of libraries across the globe.

Scientific proof

>However, the credibility of the New Testament has been proven scientifically.

Having at hand many copies of the New Testament that date back to close to the era in which is was written proves that the book was popular and important. It suggests, but does not prove, that the oldest known copies we have are similar to the original versions of the texts. That doesn't offer any particular proof that everything described in the Gospels actually happened.

It remains likely that the Gospels are a mixture of truth, rumour, embellishment and religious myth, written years after Jesus' death to inspire faith. If you read the first three gospels, it seems as though there must have been many fragments circulating before they were compiled into Gospels, as those books are patchy, tend to repeat sections of each other, have inconsistant styles within themselves. Only John, written much later, is relatively consistant. In short, the 'scientific' proof is poorly reasoned, runs counter to the evidence.

Wow, how many times did you refer to the word "white" in your message!! Whatever you said was tainted by the fact that you are a prejudice person. God is whatever you beleive he is. Black, white, female, male...he is a supreme being with no physical attributes. Yes, he is pictured as being white because of historical facts of where Jesus was born and lived and who his parents were. I agree that the truth can be distorted...I will add that there have been many studies that prove the significance of the bible. I don't really care what was scrambled..or what version of the truth it is...The fact is that I, as many many more do..beleive in it...it works for me...and that is all that matters...one of the only things that I live by as a Christian is: "Beleive what you want, but accept that others may beleive differently" Whatever you beleive that makes you the person that you are..as long as you live well..and treat others with respect...whatever is the TRUTH you speak of..whomever is the "real" God....I know that if you live by those simple rules...you will be welcomed to wherever you beleive is heaven!! You need to lose the black and white thing though!!

PLEASE GO DIG A HOLE AND WHEN IT IS REALLY DEEP, PLEASE, DIG A BIT MORE THEN PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE JUMP IN AND NEVER WRITE ON THIS WEBPAGE AND GIVE US ALL A BREAK.

Well if you have any sense then you should know that the Da Vinci Code Movie (2006)was great, the book was excellent. For you to say that you disliked the film makes me sick. They can only put so much into a film. I enjoyed what they were able to do.

okay...

okay... for starters, all these ppl with all these different replies and mess NEED to find something better to do with your time. And to little miss european up there... what the HELL do you know?? Over there they barely teach you to wash and shave, much less who and what you should believe in. Not a single person has the right to get on here and dispute Christianity and all that it's based on when none of you were there. Granted, neither was I, but I choose to believe that a bunch of ignorant fools crucified the SON OF GOD, not knowing what they were doing, and because of that, my sins are forgiven. If you don't believe the same way, then fine. But who are you to attempt to belittle and question everything I believe in?? ANSWER: no one... so all of you get a life and something of YOUR OWN to believe in so you don't spend all your time trying to make truly faithful people question what they believe in. To everyone that matters, you're wasting your time anyway.

Do you think that people (humanity), really have any concept about a higher power, what ever belief any culture has about god, buhda ect it is all man made. The belief that someone or something is looking after them is just a human hope coping mechinism, and in a way deludeding themselves. I can see how this could give a person strength and purpose to their lives. Just a question I want to throw out if people stopped believing in any religion and started beliveing in themselves ( not talking in the spirtual sense, but everything is made from the same elements through-out the universe and humanity is not unique)? Would they feel alone because no one is looking after them i.e a higher power? or would they feel united with everything in the universe? If so do you think they would be as much conflict as there is today in society, not just between religions, but race,creed sex or class?

I managed to find some interesting info encoded within the KJV Bible. Here is what I found when searching the Bible for the word " MESSIAH " with the (E)quidistant (L)etter (S)equencing skip number set to 1,666.

......THE......
........M.......
........E.......
........S.......
........S.......
.........I.......
........A.......
...ISTHECON...

I KID YOU NOT !
I did find one search match for the word " MESSIAH ", but what was interesting was the fact that the word " THE " was located directly above the messiah, and the words " IS THE CON " was located directly below below it !

Hey I just watched " The Passion of the Christ " again, and I noticed that it was an " ICON " movie. The ICON symbol has a partial picture of a face with the letters ICON positioned directly below it. Is that face saying " I CON ". Is it the face of Jesus, or an anti-christ !

Why is it that people of god are so threatened by a fictional book? I find that very telling. People are not threatened by fictional work like the story of Job, or Noah, or Adam and Eve. For people of faith you seem easily shaken up..
