text: anyone read holyblood/holygrail? i am currently reading and i will guess that this book has caused a lot of controversy. i haven't read the book from cover to cover, but i did skim it and get the gist of it. it really didn't sell very well until davinci code. the idea that jesus an mary were married is not new, there are a lot of theories about exactly what happened during and after jesus' death. the unfortunate thing is that the catholic church destroyed most of the early christian writings that did not fit what was decided through conclaves to be the gospels. i would imagine there was a lot of good historical info there.
