The Gospel of Lie is a labyrinth of a book laden with Gnostic secrets and alchemical symbols. A tribute to the works of Carl Jung, Hermann Hesse, Umberto Eco and Jorge Luis Borges…
I'm not sure who they considers themselves to be, but to cast themselves in the same mould as Umberto Eco [ The Name of the Rose, Foucault's Pendulum ] means they are both incredible literary genius or the most arrogant bunch of up-themselves tossers you could hope to come across.
The first few words after the colon suggest that I'd better give it a miss, as Umberto was one of the tragic losses we suffered last year, and to find a pair of sanctimonious sophomoric clowns besmirching the name of a renowned scholar, noted philosopher and acclaimed author from whom the parasitic scribbler Dan Brown managed to bludge an entire novel by grabbing one paragraph of the rich and intertwined tapestry that was Foucault's Pendulum would totally put me out of my holiday mood.
I'd consider myself to have more integrity if I were to spray 'Coke adds life' on the Adelaide station wall, hum Greensleeves via a kazoo, and claim I was inspired by Gerry Garcia, Douglas Hofstadter and King Henry VIII.
Um … OK. You realise it says tribute right?
Geez, coke hasn't been adding life for quite a while now. Integrity indeed.
So, Holy Blood, Holy Grail is not Dan Browns only run at plagiarism. It was so blatant I had to stop reading. Then, in court he says,"Nah never read or heard of it".
Lovejoy said it best "Marge everything is a sin. Have you ever sat down and read this thing? (holds up the bible) -Technically we're not allowed to go to the bathroom."
Apparently its a laugh a minute.
Perhaps not…
depends what level atheist you are…
Is this serious? Where's the bargain? Looks like a scam for people to receive referral credits.

I can't find any info on the book apart from the Amazon link. What is it?
Is it a book of lies about lies, abuse, and delusion, by a deluded extremist? Or a rational author writing about the subject? He seems to have no historical authority but states that as a subject?
