The Holy Grail

Major guilty pleasure alert. So I’m reading the book The Da Vinci Code and it has taken me a little bit to get through it because I don’t get as much time to read as I would like, but my New Years resolution is to read more so I will be putting in more time. But wow is this book fascinating. I can see why the Christians hated the book because it basically shows the truth behind their religion and the brain washing that has happened. I know that Dan Brown has kind of fudged the truth here and there, but for the most part he is presenting historical truth. Every time I come across something that I wonder about, I whip out the iPhone and Google. Dan Brown is pretty freaking close. I mean all of his ideas come from truth.

The thing about this book that really makes me gaga is Leonardo Da Vinci himself. That man is freaking fascinating. He basically taunted humans with his art. He has all these hidden meanings in his art regarding the Holy Grail and the truth behind Jesus and Mary Magdalene and wow. He shows that women are supposed to be the powerful ones and not the men, which I knew, but not many men were willing to accept that truth, but Da Vinci worshiped it. Not only was he an amazing artist, but he was a clever little bugger. He came up with inventions that were never executed, but were quite amazing in theory. I decided to search Amazon for some books about Da Vinci and I found one that has all of his works.

I want to sit down with Dan Brown and be like “tell me what you know!!!” I was never a big history buff because it was all boring dates to me until I had this amazing teacher who told us the truth behind the bullshit and that is what Dan Brown is doing. So awesome!!!!
