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)
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)
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 (talk • contribs) 15:19, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
