Guys, I'm going to guess that a quadruple history major is well aware that it's fictitious and that has nothing to do with her question...

No, kola, haven't seen it yet, but I really want to.  In fact, I just picked up the paperback today. 

I've seen several History Channel specials on various aspects of the book (and why it's really not plausible...) and have found them quite fascinating.  But have been waiting patiently for it to come out in PB before reading the book.   :wink:

So far as the conflict-- frankly I don't understand the various Christian groups who are up in arms about this.  Unless they think people aren't going to realize it's fiction...? :???:
