Looks very intriguing. I hope we will get some form of a release here in Europe :)

I think this was PRECISELY what the Vatican was worried about.... that people or groups of people would buy into the fictitious story behind The DaVinci Code and start investigating for possible "clues" that would shed false light on the matter.

Dan Brown went on the record to assure everybody that his book was a work of FICTION.... yet there'll always be somebody out there willing to cling to the lie strongly enough to exacerbate it and stretch it until more people are suckered into believing that Jesus could have been married with children.

Dissenter · 1 year ago

Why couldn't he have been married with children? Dan Brown can eat a bag of dicks, but the fact that no marriage has been documented doesn't mean there was no marriage.

Then again, it's damn near impossible to prove a negative, so...*shrug*.

Bill Bushey · 1 year ago

Well, that's the whole point. It's never been documented ANYWHERE.... at a time when people and their affairs were oftentimes counted (for tax purposes and such) and well-documented. Hell, the whole Book of Numbers is one huge list of stats.

If there's no record of me being married anywhere, isn't it foolish to assume otherwise?

Jesus wasnt sent to the world to spread his seed. In those days with soo many powerful people trying to disprove Jesus and his teachings. A sexual relationship, a marriage, a child etc. would be impossible to coverup

What interests me is any opposition to someone asking questions, an opposition that isn't really warranted unless there is something to hide. That's what the trailer makes it out to be like, anyway. I will have to see the film for myself.

But I still don't see any reason why this couldn't be true. There might have been a lot of statistics written down, but usually about people who have a real home. Didn't Jesus move around a lot, and stay with other people or in camps? I mean, it's not like he was an ordinary citizen. The only real written knowledge we have about Jesus is from the Bible, not a Census. There is a LOT about the past that we do not know about, and that will only come from much more archaeology and anthropology, and other related sciences. Besides, history is written by those with the power. We will find the truth only from digging for it. Maybe this whole bloodline thing is not true, and maybe it is. It, at least, is a possibility. But if there is a question in the minds of many, why not try to answer it.

Bill Bushey · 1 year ago

I'll explain the opposition, Robert R. Jesus is the Cornerstone of Christianity; a faith that millions keep. The Bible provides us with four separate accounts of His life, His ministry, His death, His resurrection.... and His purpose.

Out of four separate accounts, none of them mention a wife. By Christian accounts, Jesus sacrificed a degree of earthly happiness to remain as pure and sinless as a sacrificial lamb. Having a wife would have not only gone against what He was trying to accomplish, but would have negated all of the suffering He endured for the sake of our sins.

Imagine Jesus getting to Heaven only to have His Father tell Him, "Yeah, you did pretty well, Jesus.... but..... ooooh, looks like You took a wife when You were 25. I guess all that suffering You did was for nothing because now, Your sacrifice doesn't count."

You're certainly right to say that, by and large, history is written by the winners, but if the TRUTH can't be found with 100% certainty that it is, in fact, the truth, then it's better to leave things as-is and not to openly speculate.

The Bible speaks of a straying from the faith in the last days and, as innocuous as a Dan Brown movie about a fictitious wife of Jesus may seem, it just might lead the weaker of faith away from Jesus. Assuming that Jesus is, in fact, our only Way to Heaven (which I actually DO believe), uncovering perceived archaeological "proofs" just might lead people to hell.

There are already enough people in the world who hate Jesus and the Goodness that He stands for that it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility to make stuff up about Him that simply isn't true. I just don't see the need to open up an investigation more than 2,000 years post-mortem.

Rob Hunter · 1 year ago

Why is this even an argument? These theories (conspiracy or otherwise) have been around a long time, well before Dan Brown novelized them into The Davinci Code. His book was fiction, as are the theories, as is the Bible. Believe what you need to in order to live your life each day, but don't begrudge someone else for having a different fictionalized view of history.

Daanish · 1 year ago

Many of you guys didn't understand Dan Brown's book. Yes, it was a work of fiction, but Dan, whenever he writes a book, he always uses cold hard facts. He just uses them to create a tale. For example, If it says in a book that there is an organization called the C.I.A. and it holds the answers to many of humanities mysteries. The latter part of the sentence might be something the author is using for his story, it doesn't mean that the C.I.A. is also the work of his imagination. Most of the stuff in Dan's book is true just the story is a work of fiction. And just for the record there is no way that anyone can prove that a super human called Jesus Christ ever existed.

Bill Bushey · 1 year ago

Daanish wrote, "And just for the record there is no way that anyone can prove that a super human called Jesus Christ ever existed."

Oddly enough, there is more evidence of the existence of Jesus than perhaps any other man, woman or child of that era... and of subsequent eras as well. His existence and activities are well documented in the gospels by people who have DIED for Him. Even early historians from the first century such as Cornelius Tacitus wrote of His existence.

I just doubt that even one person, let alone MANY would die for Someone who never existed. I doubt we would set our calendars to Someone who never existed (B.C. - Before Christ & A.D. - Anno Domini 'The Year of Our Lord'). I doubt a fictitious person could still be so well-known over 2,000 years following a death that, presumably never happened if we were to believe the naysayers.

Even Islam acknowledges the existence of Jesus. Heck, I'll be flattered if anybody can prove that I existed 500 years after my death, let alone 2,000.... and that was in the age before video!

Jesus Christ was real and he was a normal Human being like you, like me. Leave it to scholars and philosophers to exaggerate.

Bill Bushey · 1 year ago

I don't believe Jesus was a "normal human being" like you and me, primarily because no mere mortal could have inspired the building of so many churches and other places of worship. It just doesn't make sense to build entire religions around a regular guy.

And if you attribute Jesus's continued "fame" (for lack of a better word) to the exaggerations of scholars and philosophers, don't you think they'd have picked someone of higher stature to be capable of all these miracles? Maybe a King or something?

I just find it hard to swallow that the exploits of a normal guy could create such a legacy as to survive over two millennia. Any normal guy would have been long forgotten and we wouldn't even be having this discussion.

akivaah · 1 year ago

Yet the Documentary is a continuation of the diffusion of truth. It is obvious that Jesus was married to Magdalene and they had an offspring. Many fatcs are there, its only we have to analyse them well. The Da vinci movie and novel have shed light in a more diplomatic way but truth is more deeper and harder, as the concept of vatican is based on lies. True christians are those who recognised the truth of Jesus as a married man, the Royal descent of the House of David to Mary Magdalene, the Royal descent of the House of Benjamin........... truth is more deeper, what is seen is only the tip of iceberg. oh mortal, do open your eyes

Daanish · 1 year ago

Bill I said super human being. Obviously he existed as a human but there is no evidence that says he has super natural powers. We all now that Hercules has been mythologized to be a super human but we all know he wasn't. so why do we still believe that Jesus had super powers. If we can believe Jesus had super powers then what is stopping us from believing that Hercules had super strength. Also i have something to say that i have no evidence of backing up. This is just my own theory, the low end of society part is a fact by the way. The fact that Christianity started in the lower end of society(homeless, beggars, poor people, basically people that couldn't afford an education) should be a notice to anybody who has an education to understand how it spread. People without an education are easily impressed. Also Bill, just think. In the old pagan days when someone could do something extraordinary they would say he has been blessed by the gods or he is an offspring of the Gods, so what is so different about Jesus Christ. The truth is that Jesus Christ's abilities are being over exaggerated and we need to understand that if such a great person ever existed and that if God existed why do we live in a world filled with hatred and natural disasters and amputees. If this documentary shows that Jesus Christ can have children, that means he is not a immortal or a demigod or whatever, he is just a normal selfish human.

Jesus is the Cornerstone of Christianity; a faith that millions keep. The Bible provides us with four separate accounts of His life, His ministry, His death, His resurrection…. and His purpose.


What you have to remember is that these books weren't written until after Jesus' death. Mark was not a disciple of Jesus. Matthew and John may have been but it's been said that they didn't even write what is in the bible we know today. We can't be absolutely certain that the Gospels really were based on the testimony of their named authors.

Flora · 1 year ago

Basically my point is that the bible is a good example of the game Phone line you start with someone saying one thing and with something completely different in the end

Bill Bushey · 1 year ago

Well, at the very least, the Gospel of Matthew had originally been writtten in Aramaic, which was later translated to Greek, so YES, what was originally written isn't what we know the Gospel to be today because it's no longer in Aramaic.

Had any of the Gospels been false, they were written early enough that people would have corrected errors or discredited them altogether. The four separate Gospels each tell about the ministry of Jesus with different emphasis on different events. Yet, they are, as many biblical scholars have pointed out over the ages, harmonious in that they don't stray from the main story.

The fact that we even KNOW about the Gospels after 2,000 years of people constantly setting out to destroy the word of God should tell the skeptic something about its authenticity.

After all, I'm reasonably sure that, had the words not been true, God would have seen to it that the Gospels had been destroyed LONG before now.

Flora · 1 year ago

Just cause God hasn't destroyed them doesn't make them accurate either...Why does God let people suffer cause of free will? God could do alot of things but he doesn't. The bible is not much different from other books it's a story. Like you said yourself. You can't keep trying to argue your point you aren't going to make a believer out of everyone. You can keep preaching to me that Jesus was a gift to humankind but the fact still remains he was a man, a human just like you and I. Jesus being a man had needs...love being one of them and just cause you can't accept that he probably did have a wife and children doesn't mean he didn't have them. We will NEVER know the full history of an event or the life of a person, details will always gets lost along the way

Daanish · 1 year ago

I completely agree with Flora history is a very biased thing. It can be changed and no one down the line the future would be able to prove that it has been changed. Also Billy the longevity of a subjecy does not verify wehter it is accurate. It can also not be considered the truth just because it is popular. Thats like saying macdonalds is the best place to eat becasue it is popular.

Shivprasad · 1 year ago

Whatever may be the line of argument about the marriage of Jesus. The Bloodline Movie sound very fictitious. Simply because if the Priory of Scion came into existence to guard a secret & if it is doing so for centuries, Then why would any of it's current member would reveal its secrets to anyone. While watching the movie, I had a feeling that its a hoax. May be because the huge success of THE DA VINCI CODE has given an idea for making such movies. The movie does not answer some questions at all & the director has not taken any efforts to really crosscheck the authenticity of many evidences like the parchments which are shown in the movie. More than documentary which should be aiming at revealing the dead secrets, it looks like a mere treasure hunt.

Many syncretistic religions formed gnosticism. Gnosticism was rivaling against Christianity and gnosticism held itself better religion as Christianity was. Word gnosticism comes from Greek word gnosis, which means knowledge. Gnosticism had various effects, for instance, some Gnostics taught that divinity can be achieved through unity of the man and woman. This thought led some Gnostics to reach for divinity through sexual intercourse between the man and woman. There existed also some Gnostics, who abstained from sexual intercourse. When we know the fact that Gnostics held Christians as their enemies and that Gnostics held themselves better as Christians and that Gnostics wanted to show in every way that Gnosticism was better as Christianity, so Gnostics made so called gnostic gospels were they twisted, slandered and misrepresented the real gospels. Gnostics went so far in this misrepresent that they wrote “new gospels” by faking the real gospels. In these faked gospels Gnostics wrote that Jesus Christ was an ordinary man who has a sexual relationship with Mary Magdalene.
