It's Hot In Here And Why Am I In A Handbasket

To those of you who have not read the DaVinci Code you may want to quit reading this because it includes some spoilers.

I am a spiritual person but not a religious one. As a child my family introduced me to religion I went to a Lutheran high school for 2 years. I will admit I have serious issues with organized religion. Call me a pagan if you want. I am at a point where I am doubting my faith. Reading this book has only made it worse. I know it is fiction but why would fiction be so controversial if there wasn't some truth in it the book it's totally believable up until about the last 40 pages.

What if tomorrow we did all discover that Jesus Christ was a married man would that be such a bad thing? If that is true then there would be descendants of Christ walking the earth right now.

There is a portion of the book that discussed the new testament to be inaccurate that important information was left out. Think about it, this man described to us as the messiah he walked on water, fed the hungry, died for our sins and was resurrected. There is nothing in there about his childhood what did he do as a kid or was he only considered a diety after he started his ministry?

My mother keeps telling me there is a god, a divine being that created us all otherwise how did we get here. No on really knows, my thoughts about the "Greatest Story Ever Told" is exactly that, a "Story" I'm not asking for proof here I am just voicing my thoughts. Lately this is one of my personal demons. I have abided by the good book for a long time and try to emphasize the teachings to my children so that hopefully they will grow up to be model citizens.
