Why I hate the Da Vince Code....
I decided last week to read the Da Vinci Code. Besides the incredible inaccuracies, there's one thing that really bugs me - and that's the ridiculous feminism. Yes, the book is full of anti-male feminism. Check out this paragraph from chapter 28:
The days of the goddess were over. The pendulum had swung. Mother Earth had become a man's world, and the gods of destruction and war were taking their toll. The male ego had spent two millenia running unchecked by its female counterpart. The Priory of Sion believed that it was this obliteration of the sacred feminine in modern life that had caused what the Hop Native Americans called 'koyanisquatsi' - "life out of balance" - an unstable situation marked by testosterone-fueled wars, a plethora a misogynistic societies, and a growing disrespect of Mother Earth."How's that for blaming everything on men????

The fact that there is absolutely no anthropological evidence of matriarchal societies hasn't prevented 'feminists' from selling a load of BS to the public.
'Feminist' groups in North America however are simply another bunch of government funded lefty squawkers, so of course they squawk what they're told to squawk.
A recent example: Sharia law coming to a jurisdiction in North America - were they 'outraged' or 'oppressed' or 'offended' blah, blah, blah... No, didn't bother them in the least.
'Goddess culture' has existed, but that in and of itself is not evidence of matriarchy - they simply worshipped a Goddess, like the way some people regard the Virgin Mary. Men and women can worship a goddess all they want, but in ancient history when brute strength was a big factor in who had power and who didn't - men had the power.
If Leonardo Da VInci were alive today he would sue.
