Exposing the Da Vinci Code

Christianity's Openness is no Match

Father Raymond De Souza has a great point in his National Post editorial yesterday (unfortunately, the article is not on line):

Faith does not require great intelligence, let alone academic credentials. It does require common sense, or better, a common wisdom. Indeed, the great liberating power of Judeo-Christian revelation was that it freed man’s transcendent character from the oppressive world of pagan religion, with its secret knowledge, godlike natural forces, arbitrary powers and fanciful myths and legends. The great innovation of biblical religion is that it is accessible to the common people[my italics].

The article also posted this Titian painting of a penitent Mary Magdalene.

The Da Vinci Code's secretive and exclusive position is slowly being exposed.
