Les impostures antichrétiennes: des apocryphes au Da Vinci code
Par Joseph-Marie Verlinde. 2006
Plus que jamais, le christianisme se doit de répondre aux défis qui lui sont lancés, notamment au New Age et…
aux thèses développées dans le Da Vinci Code, ou encore au gnosticisme, à l'occultisme et à la magia sexualis . Les adeptes du New Age adhèrent en effet à l'idée d'une Tradition primordiale dont les religions ne seraient que des expressions plus ou moins dévoyées. Joseph-Marie Verlinde démontre le caractère fantaisiste de cette théorie, prenant forme chez Dan Brown dans le culte à la Grande Déesse qui a supplanté le Dieu paternaliste judéo-chrétien. En déconstruisant une à une les thèses de l'écrivain américain - sur la Révélation, le mythe du Graal, la soi-disant diabolisation de la sexualité par l'Église, sa prétendue misogynie -, il nous donne les clés pour comprendre la véritable teneur de l' oeuvre de Dan Brown. Et c'est aussi pour lui l'occasion de répandre la Bonne Nouvelle pour contrer ses effets. -- 4e de couvWhen the worst that can happen already has: conquering life's most difficult times
