Dan Brown's Exaggeration in Da-Vinci Code.....

This is about my opinion about Da-Vinci Code Novel by Dan Brown.
I would like to say but there a few fundamental flaws with the Novel . After reading the book and doing a lot of research on it I found that it's Dan Brown himself who exaggerate the whole incident. Well this story is an immense hit in the Market but if you dig a little deeper then you will find that the claims made in this Book is not absolutely Authentic.
Dan Brown states that Mary Magdalene was the wife of Jesus and she gave birth to the Bloodline of Jesus Christ. Yes these facts are somewhat possible since the Vatican Archives do have some proof of this. But those of you who have seen the Review in the History Channel know that this claim is not fully based on Facts. Yes it's known for sure that Mary Magdalene was a disciple of Jesus and she was rather intensely close to him but we can't say for sure that she was the wife of Jesus and that Jesus was a maried man based on the single fact that it was highly Unusual for Jewish Men to be Bachelors at that point of time. But we also have to consider the fact that Jesus himself was Unusual too. There are not many people who are historically as important as Jesus. Yes it is true to the Word that many important truths have been covered by the church but based on the remaining evidences we can't say for sure that Jesus was married with Magdalene.
Margaret Starbird an expert on this issue agrees with Dan Brown but all other authors and experts and those even the Protestant Scholar's too disagree to the claims made by Dan Brown. They say that maybe Magdalene was the wife of Jesus but we can't simply claim that for certain considering that there is no Hard Evidence and all Vague Hints lead to the Dead Sea Scrolls which itself does not say for sure but the intimacy between LORD and Mary Magdalene points to this fact but again this is not a Hard Evidence but a Strong Hint. It is not possible for us to uncover all facts because simply there aren't enough.
So you see my Friends don't believe Dan Brown blindy. Remember to use your rationality.
