Selling Heresy


I may have to subscribe to The New Yorker again. Lately, everytime I search their website, there's an article I find really informative or useful.

This week, it's Peter Boyer's article on how the Sony Corporation decided on a damage-control strategy to market The Da Vinci Code to evangelicals.

Even if the main thrust of the article wasn't so interesting, it would be worth it for the aside about how art scholars also pan Brown for being as wrong about Da Vinci as we Christians know he is about Jesus. One such art expert

'concluded his article by suggesting that “The Da Vinci Code” might make a better opera than a film, offering the old advice that “if it’s too silly to be said, it can always be sung.”'
