The Lost Symbol is.... (*** Spoiler Alert ***)

Post by _Scottie »

a King James Bible?????? WTF????

You mean to tell me that the Masons have a secret pyramid protecting profound ancient wisdom with the capability of forever transforming mankind if it were found, and this secret points to.... A Bible?????

I have to say, this was one of the most disappointing reveals I have ever read.

So the Masons go the extreme measures to keep the pyramid and capstone apart, and even when together, the pyramid must be deciphered layer after layer because only the very wise can access this ancient wisdom, and we find out that it's a freaking Bible???? And then we find that the Bible has encoded wisdom that basically amounts to "God is within yourself. Unleash it."

What a weak book.

I agree 100%. This is easily the weakest of the Robert Langdon trilogy, BY FAR.

If it is any consolation, the Bible won out in a best two out of three coin toss between it, The Book of Abraham and the Beatles' Abbey Road album.

You mean you kept awake through the mind numbing 'secret codes' page after page after page.. to actually get to the end?
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be a mile away and you'll have their shoes.
