I just read an interesting article over at Fox News regarding The Da Vinci code. One of the quotes I liked best was, “Dan Brown is capable of passing fiction for fact because Christians don’t know their faith — what and why they believe. That’s not Mr. Brown’s fault.”

I think that sums it up pretty well. I recently purchased a book entitled The Da Vinci Deception (at least that’s what I think it’s called) that points out a bunch of errors in the book, but also presents the truth to counter those errors. It was a really good read for me, and it helped explain a little bit more about the Catholic church and church history in general.

Know your faith. Don’t just pretend to know it. And then, movies like this, or slick talkers, or the next new thing to attack Christianity won’t be a problem. A little education never hurt anyone. Find out why you believe what you believe. Be able to share those reasons with other people.

I know I’m not there yet, but I hope I’m getting a little closer every day.
