| 520 | |a In his overwhelmingly popular novel, The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown states that he describes all documents "accurately" when he asserts the theory that Mary Magdalene had a sexual relationship with Jesus, was married to him and bore his children. In this article I will examine the sources for Brown's ideas and compare them to the actual documents-particularly the Gnostic gospels -that he claims to have carefully described. I will argue that Brown not only misrepresents the documents that he claimed to have used but that he actually replicates the errors of the early church by concentrating on Mary's sexual status rather than upon her status as the apostle to the apostles. | ||
