Novels, short stories, pocket book. Just name it. I have already read each of them. In short stories, I have read about Cris and Sam tandem in “Send my love to Heaven”. For pocket books, I like “The Baby-Sitter’s Club” and “Sweet Valley High”. For the novels, to my greatest surprise and revelation, I found “The Da Vinci Code” as interesting as my favorite books. Well actually, I never got so shocked when I heard about the novel being one of the considered best-selling books in history. But I was extremely shocked when I heard that “The Da Vinci Code” was opposed and strictly forbidden by the Roman Catholic Church. Do you want to know why? Because there are ‘FICTIONAL’ secrets about Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene (the prostitute who is Jesus’ close friend). Wan to know what these secrets are? Here it goes… Just chill in!
* Was Jesus Christ Married?
Based upon what we have learned so far, it should then come as no surprise to learn that some would claim the outrageous—that Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married. A passage from the Gospel of Philip is often cited as proof of their union: “And the companion of the Savior is Mary Magdalene. But Christ loved her more than all the disciples and used to kiss her often on her mouth. The rest of the disciples were offended by it and expressed disapproval.
*Do they have a child?
Because it stated “in the book” that Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene were married, you might as well expect that they have children. In the book, it was stated that they had a beautiful daughter named Sarah. Mary Magdalene gave birth on her after Jesus had died and that after she was exiled in Jerusalem. You should have seen it in the movies, the way she gave birth, it was tragic! Instead of lying down, she was STANDING and at the same time holding a pair of ropes for support. Poor lady… I was so much surprised when I read the part that they got married, to be honest, I almost cried. I was mad on the author for not respecting our religion. But now, I think little by little, I began to understand the nature of the author. I think it is because Leonardo Da Vinci is not a Roman Catholic by birth. I think that was one of the reasons why the author connected our faith to the famous painter. It was also said that Da Vinci was famous for secret codes, which were hidden on his paintings like Madonna on the Rocks and his famous portrait of The Mona Lisa. Well, for my opinion, I think the Roman Catholic Church shouldn’t band the novel because it was so clear in the cover that it was just fictional. I don’t believe these kinds of speculations. I don’t think these could ruin my faith with God. I have so much faith on him. If you also have the same
