but there are more interesting stories that get no National Geographic channel specials. I mean, honestly, what the fuck is so special about saying Jesus got married or something? Hey, guess what? LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST! Hell, Kevin Smith made a movie about his great great great great great great great grand-niece (Dogma spoiler-warning). But some guy writes that he married Mary Magdalene and Da Vinci put secret codes in his paintings, all of a sudden OMG WHAT IF THAT WERE REAL!? Wake me when someone makes a movie about Jesus being black (besides Dogma).
Look, I'm not saying the book is a BAD dimestore thriller novel, I'm just sick and tired of it being elevated into something that it's not. I'm sick of hearing about it, so I'm not going to read it. And I'm probably not going to see the movie, either.
