In the book’s 65-page introduction, Abdallah wrote that the Bible version had been “written before the Genesis,”
I never knew that man had papyrus and lights before our universe was created.

I know nothing of the sort. Carrier presents several apparent facts that, if they are facts, seem to imply the truth of my claim. If there is no evidence in that article, then either (1) what he states as facts are actually false, or (2) even if true, those facts do not imply the truth of my claims.

Which of those alternatives are you alleging?

'Fraid not. The "Da Vinci Code" is fiction, you know.

The "Da Vinci Code" can legitimately be equated to the gospels. In fact, as in the latters, the contained truth in it, whether large or small, is mixed with fiction ...
