One of the most insightful and inspirational books that I have read in a long time. I loved it so much, that I have decided to read it again.

had fun poring thru this book. Made me set a goal to go to those places.

The whole argument from the authors as to why the "facts" presented in Dan Brown's novel are false is that is not the way these "facts" are presented in the Christian Bible. There is no critical thinking involved in this work. Don't waste your time.

I picked this up kind of randomly. I had already read Dan Brown's DaVinci's Code, and had been amused by the fictional nonsense it put out there, but in the past few years I've heard many people spout the same nonsense as if it is historical fact. This book did a good job (although a bit simplistic - I think it is aimed at High School & College kids) of deconstructing the assertions in Brown's book, and identified where the original fallacies came from. And alot of them were crackpot fictional creations within my own lifetime. So much for having predated the Gospels of the Bible.

This is a book that I loved to read. It is a book that cleared the dust from the views of those who have dogmatically accepted the views of Dan Brown. It is not a perfect book, nonetheless it places fiction at where it is supposed to be and facts got their place. It seems that they did the work that the fiction writer could not do. thumbs up

As a Christian the Da Vinci Code left me with alot of questions. This book gave me the answers I needed.

3 star rating only because some of the "arguments" were difficult to follow (which, I admit, may be a result of my intellect or lack thereof).

I'd probably give it 3.5 if I could. The .5 is that I enjoyed how they had a narrative component bu following a character named "Carrie". Her story helped to pull me through the book.

At the end of the day, Jesus is Lord

The Davinci's Code is a novel that nags ar your head and keeps you guessing 'till the end. When boredom keeps you from doing some activity outside you should pick up this book. You will never regret it.

The book goes & shows that a lot of the facts in The Da Vinci Code are either misleading and/or just plain false.

A must read for anybody that has read The Da Vinci Code & wants to know what are & are not facts. Also, what can't be proven either way...

I had to read it after The Davinci Code made me think...lol.

Nei. Det er nok Dan Brown og Da Vinci nå for wn stund

The book addresses a number of inconsistencies between Christian doctrine and the Da Vinci Codes book by using historic documentation and theological scholarship. The book puts much of its terminology in layman's terms and is relatively easy to understand, but it extends its position beyond evidence at times. As a result, the text becomes argumentative and preachy. Still it is a good read that logically refutes many of the claims made in Dan Brown's book. Interesting and good, but not great. Three stars.

I have always tried my best to alternate my reading choices so that a non-fiction book follows a fictional story.
Sometimes I do not succeed in adhering to this self-imposed ritual because not as many non-fiction books attract and hold my interest as often as does fiction.
Cracking Da Vinci's Code not only proved interesting, it turned out to be entertaining, educational, and enjoyable as well.
