Why is "The da Vinci Code" so contradicted? Why the Christian Church made an attempt to accuse Dan Brown of heresy?
Now think. Are you sure the world was always ruled by men?
There's a historical proof telling us something quite opposite.
It was about 8 thousand years ago that matriarchy existed in a form of a civilised society, i.e. group of women, sharing goods and men between themslves. That was what one could call women's friendship, however it was more than merely friendship for them. In that society women were free to choose partners and had a domineering position, as were considered to be saint and were treated exactly like Goddesses.
A woman possesses capability to enter the world of dead, which is practically what the religion in the common sense is. A woman can unravel secrets of nature, can feel the connection with the Universe much better than a man, who can only get this feeling from Her.
Its not news that religion rules the world and the minds of millions. The one who keeps this religion and the cult has a great power over the wolrd. No wonder, men, with their natural instinct to win, possess and dominate, turned women in their property as they did with holy, in the times of women, animals. Now almost all the churches and temples are run and ruled by Men - a woman has to pray through Him. In Russian Orthodox Chruch She is not admitted to enter certain parts of the church only because She is a Devil, bringing evil into His life. In the Bible a Woman is not a human being, she is compared to an animal who is sent on Earth by God to satisfy a man. Inhuman?
At least they had their reasons for that.
What would you do with someone immensely powerful who menaces you? Kill him? Maybe not, although Constantin did that also. You would deprave him of that power, which is quite logical in such a situation. But what did men do to us (me and other women)? Turned us into slaves and prostitutes. And that was what happened to Mary Magdalene who was actually married to Jesus and had a baby with him - she was turned into a prostitute by the Roman Emperor Constantin.
P.S. was thinkig a lot about our role in the society after watching the film and realised that its not feminism what it should be called - its power, which we unfortunately never use.

Anya, while I agree that it might be possible that Mary Magdelene was not a prostitute, as she has been depicted in recent history, but an apostle, I do not agree that she was married to Jesus and/or had a child by him. Mostly because this is not documented anywhere in history. Recent discoveries of what could have been the gospels of Mary Magdelene show her as an influential early Christian, but even her own gospels (if those are indeed what they are) make no mention of a child or a romantic relationship with Jesus. Countless researchers have proved (and Dan Brown will admit) that the evidence he bases his claims on are not only questionable, but false. The documents proving the supposed bloodline of Jesus were forged by the secret society described in the book -- a society created merely for the purpose of starting a conspiracy about the Jesus/Magdelene child. Other evidence, such as the DaVinci painting of "The Last Supper," is pure speculation. You have to wonder what would give an artist living some time after the time of Jesus so much authority on the subject. Anyway, the lack of evidence is why The DaVinci Code is getting a lot of criticism -- because it's false, yet the movie producers refused to insert a disclaimer at the beginning saying that it was a work of fiction.
