My one and only Da Vinci Code post

The Andy CodeWe just got back from the stores at Turkey Creek where I perused the book sections at Target and Wal-Mart, and I noticed an interesting thing: Not only are Dan Brown’s books everywhere (The Da Vinci Code and others) but half-a-dozen other fiction authors have also “found religion” and have produced new novels about conspiracies involving church history. At the Lifeway Christian bookstore, it’s the same thing only different. Nearly every shelf holds an anti-Da Vinci Code book.I read The Da Vinci Code last year and found it to be a highly entertaining fantasy, but I’m basically ignoring it in my teaching (and sticking with The Andy Code).

But I do want to direct your browser to a good article at Relevant.com by Brian Lowery that deals with the hoopla and discusses why this movie attracts our attention more than others.
