In 2006 the novel The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown was produced on film and because of the public interest in the fictional work based upon certain historical facts, as well as conjecture that has been argued by scholars for a long time, there was a great deal of controversy over the content. A well acted and directed film, it soon became the big discussion on the Internet and there are some websites that still exist today that concern the subject material in one form or another. This information being provided as background information.
After being released and previewed at the opening night of the Cannes Film Festival, May 17th, 2006, the film was criticized by the Roman Catholic Church and bishops urged Christians to boycott the film orchestrated by the Vatican curiae department by Archbishop Angelo Amato. Some of the earliest showings had protesters outside the movie theaters and critical rhetoric was prolific.

Suppressio Veri: Tolerance or Submission?
Christianity
has evolved in terms of its church doctrine and Christian theocracy
is extinct. Witches no longer are burned at the stake nor does the
Inquisition no longer exist. The general concept is to follow the
teachings of Jesus
of Nazareth,
who even stopped a stoning session against a woman accused of
adultery. He did this not just on a humanitarian level, but to
emphasize that it is better to change a person other ways than
punishment by being stoned to death. He was more concerned about
spirituality than materialism.

Celts and Wicca
CELTIC PEOPLE
When one mentions Celts for most people it brings to mind the ancient culture of British isles that comprise of Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England, today known as the United Kingdom. But the Celts were Indo-Europeans spread across Europe.
There is a consensus among historians and scholars based upon archaeological evidence that the Celts were people of the Iron Age and originated from the Hallstatt culture
Wicca is a modern neo-pagan religion that is based upon an ancient pagan religion that was common among the Celts of northern Europe, and in Britannia (so named by Julius Caesar who conquered and made it part of the Roman Empire) where the mystic cult of Druidism originated based upon the Mother fertility goddess whose consort was a horned god. It is a mystery religion that has different theological concepts or denominations, some monotheist, original goddess worship, such as the Dianic Wicca, Cochrane's Craft, and polytheism. Denominations are considered traditions within the Wiccans: Gardnerian and Alexandrian Wicca follow the concepts of Gerald Gardner.
