The evolution of Dan Brown

  • The author of the popular "Da Vinci Code" has been vilified by the Catholic Church. Though he claims not to be anti-religion, Dan Brown will surely face more controversy with his latest novel featuring Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon, "Origin," in which God Himself is on the edge of extinction. Correspondent Tony Dokoupil visits Brown at home in New Hampshire, where his experiences at the prestigious prep school, Phillips Exeter Academy, shaped his life views.

I really enjoy his style of writing in its pace, beauty, and clarity and the development of the plot.

      @hglundahl 4 года назад

      My ma gave me access to creationist material ... with two years' delay from that decision.
      But before that, thinking about thought and about language was done, not without some (during said overlap) trust in evolutionism, but with this trust getting more and more ridiculous.
      How did men evolve language? Φφφφφφφφφφφφ ...
      No, I am not poo pooing the question, with the interjection "ph", I am giving the evolutionist answer.
      Man at some point learned to master fire, and this involved blowing at a fire that's small and weak to make the flames stronger. And you purse your lips while doing so to get approximately the sound φφφφφ ...
      THEN some smartass came to the conclusion that he could speak of an absent fire by saying φφφφ.
      THEN another smartass came to the conclusion that he could refer to human breath by saying φφφφ.
      And as dead men don't breathe, φφφφ also came to mean life, soul ...
      This scenario left me wondering how people learned to speak of more mundane things and how they learned to differentiate between "φφφ" as in fire and "φφφ" as in life and "φφφ" as in breath ...
      For vowel switch ee, ah, oo, depending on near, somewhat distant, far off, that would be iconic of what sounds carry a long way or sth. But again, "φee" as in "this fire" and "φee" as in "light fire now" may be differentiated for onlookers by the visual context, but how do you get "φoo" as in "that fire (in next village)" and "φoo" as "lit a fire (day before yesterday)" to show the difference?
      So, exit evolutionism. This attempt at explanation was from a German book 1920's or 1930's (references to how Aryans came to be beautiful by selection of the beautiful for nobility), but I don't think more recent attempts are any better.
      I challenged Pascal Picq a few months ago, and he gave no defense of his book.

    While Dan Brown writes fiction, unfortunately he mixes spurious 'scholarship' so an uncritical reader may believe the fiction as fact. Just a few examples .... he uses 'gospels' that are written more than 150 years after Jesus' time on Earth, in no way can they be considered factual; the 'gospel of Mary' (Magdelene) is easily exposed as bunk. for a quick source, I recommend Lee Strobel's 'The Case for the Real Jesus' which specifically deals with these flights of high fancy masquerading as true history.

    6:18 _"taste like ice cream but have the nutrition of vegetables"_
    Vegetables do have lots of fibres, good for your stomach, and lots of vitamins and minerals, good for most aspects of long term health, but nutrition is at its most basic about calories, as that is what makes you breathe and your heart beat (by all means, if you get too fat they will function badly, and if you get too little vitamins, they will function badly too, but with no calories, no breathing or heartbeats).
    The idea of being "der Lehrer meiner Leser" is not quite original, though it is noble. I cited Karl May's alter ego (or possibly two of them) about it.
    The problem is not badly written books, the problem is, badly chosen message.
    As far as novels and plots are concerned, I think you picked up lots from Sire and ... checking ... L'Anneau du pêcheur, by Raspail.
    filolohika.blogspot.com/2020/01/jaime-jean-raspail-pas-sans-reserve.html
    And he may have learned a thing or two from both Chesterton's Man who was Thursday and C. S. Lewis' Narniad.
    B U T the most natural reading (if not only possible one) and one confirmed by this interview is a _promotion_ of the bad ideas Robert Langdon falls for.

    He said all Gods fall ! There is only one God, and how would this guy know God is going to fall! Read the scripture, it tells of things that have come to light just in the last 20 yrs ! God will not fall, humanity will!!

    The Da Vinci code contains much BS. Dan Brown is way too full of himself.
