The DaVinci Code and foregiveness 

I read it in three days and loved it. A great crime book and I was happy with the ending.

Dan Brown gets into the R. C. Church and especially the part Opus Dei ('work of God'). And its about a hunt for documents that supposedly prove one of the great heresies, that Jesus was married to Miriam of Magdala and she gave birth to a child. This daughter and Mary were out of favour with the male dominated early church but the child's generations can be traced, and they mainly lived in France.

I don't believe the heresy.

I think that all of you should read it, and enjoy the book. And be aware that people with little faith are reading all about one of the heresies that surface time and time again.

On, foregiveness, well I don't know. Michele's steps might be the case for one person and may be helpful.

From my own experience, there is foregiveness of the things that happened, then there is forgiving myself, of jealousy, anger, the poor me syndrome, times of depression and wrong desires. Its reasonably easy to say things are past and I'll get on with living; its heaps harder to deal with myself. It (foregivness) may only be complete when people revisit the places and people of the past and the outcomes of course are different. I'm raving but it makes sense to me.

Oh you pooor football fanatics over a particular team: just enjoy the skills!
