Get Ready For More "Da Vinci Code"-esque Debate

[StlSluggers]

This is the first I've heard of these books or the author, but I agree with this sentiment 100%:

'That's not to say I disparage the religious impulse. I think the impulse is a critical part of the wonder and awe that human beings feel. What I am against is organised religion of the sort which persecutes people who don't believe. I'm against religious intolerance.'

Just for the record, I didn't say that.

I really enjoyed the His Dark Materials trilogy.

I think that the parallel universes/religion/God aspect to the books was an interesting take on how our lives are/could be if things were just a little different.


***SPOILER ALERT***

It's hard for me to believe that Pullman has no concept of the spirit, as that is what the Daemon's of Lizzie's world seened to be.

Ha... He's pissed that he hasn't got more bad publicity. Maybe I should ask to have this thread deleted.

Guy seems like he's not playing with a full deck, so why would people/media give that publicity?

Thanks for the links and heads up. Will avoid.

More publicity even if bad = more book sales. I had not heard of them but they sound interesting, I might give them a try.


I agree with Mookie and everyone else. Da Vinci code was like a shallow action movie in book form, which of course is what a lot of people want...

Oh I understand why he wants publicity, even bad if that's all he can get.

My point was why would anyone want to give him publicity? Ignore him/it and mission achieved.
