Debunking the Duh Vinci Code
In the third installment of a five-part series, a Baptist theologian offers an orthodox, and historically accurate, answer of "no" to this question: Did Constantine ‘promote’ Jesus?
An otherwise intelligent host of a non-religious blog I visit claimed as if it were gospel truth that it was Constantine who elevated Christ to Divine status, an historically laughable assertion, illustrating the damage the DVC is wreaking.
The only good I can see come of this is a return to orthodox teaching among all true followers of Christ: Catholics, Orthodox, and, yes, Protestants. In the past, heresy has often led to a clearer definition of dogmatic truth. This book and movie will certainly lead many astray; perhaps it will lead others to a deeper understanding and appreciation of the truths Catholicism has always maintained.

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
