It seems no matter where I turn, I'm confronted with someone talking about The da Vinci Code, which I've yet to read. For the first time in my life, I actually called up a radio talk show (Bruce and Collin on WTIC 1080 in Conn., 3 pm - 6 pm) to discuss whether Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married (for some background, check out this site). Personally, I believe they were, as it would have been almost heretical for a rabbi not to be married and procreating, as God supposedly wants us to do. Whether they had children, then, is the real question -- and, if so, where are his (or should I say "His") descendants? It's high time I re-read Holy Blood, Holy Grail. More on this in the weeks to come...
