Dan Brown Quote
For centuries the church has stood by while science picked away at religion bit by bit. Debunking miracles. Training the mind to overcome the heart. Condemning religion as the opiate of the masses. They denounce God as a hallucination - a delusional crutch for those too weak to accept that life is meaningless. I could not stand by while science presumed to harness the power of God himself! Proof, you say? Yes, proof of science's ignorance! What is wrong with the admission that something exists beyond our understanding? The day science substantiates God in a lab is the day people stop needing faith!

About Dan Brown
Brown's books have been translated into 57 languages and have sold over 200 million copies as of 2012. Three of his works—Angels & Demons, The Da Vinci Code, and Inferno—have been adapted into films, while one, The Lost Symbol, was adapted into a television series.
The Robert Langdon novels are deeply engaged with Christian themes and historical fiction, and have subsequently generated controversy. Brown states on his website that his books are not anti-Christian and that he is on a "constant spiritual journey" himself. He states that his book The Da Vinci Code is "an entertaining story that promotes spiritual discussion and debate" and suggests that the book may be used "as a positive catalyst for introspection and exploration of our faith."
