Theos-Talk Archives (May 2006 Message tt00488)

Daniel, 

Thanks (see below). 

The interesting thing is that your main reaction as to "The Da Vinci Code", after saying controversy is good, etc., consists in saying it is "only fiction", and leading readers to the conventional "schoclarly" speculation. 

This is the OPUS DEI's attitude. 

Regards, Carlos.
