Overcite

[edit]

Removed overcite from lede; this had previously been some 10 or so refs, later amalgamated into a wall of text. The book's debunking is comprehensively covered elsewhere in the article. Neil S. Walker (talk) 12:07, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Other influences

[edit]

This was a list of otherwise unconnected books et al that also included the GJW, RLC or POS; without RS stating that they were directly influenced by HBHG they don't belong. Neil S. Walker (talk) 12:10, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Foucault's Pendulum?

[edit]

The 1988 novel Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco mentions the Jesus and Mary Magdalene hypothesis in passing (a quote from the book is one of the chapter headings). However, Eco, a secular humanist, takes a negative stance on such conspiracy theories. Foucault's Pendulum was a strong debunking of themes found in The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail through the medium of satire.

I read the book and remember no such reference- needs to be properly cited. Besides it is a very vague reference as seems irrelevant. It also seems odd novel is used a reference.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.35.68.4 (talkcontribs) 15:19, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
