Pierre Plantard rubbished “The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail” on the French Jacques Pradel Radio Show, on 18 February 1982. Understandably, Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh and Henry Lincoln kept tight-lipped about this when they later published “The Messianic Legacy”.

Regarding “Rex Deus” – was there a specific family involved or was it just a succession of a shadowy dynasty of high-born nobles – characterized as direct descendants of Jesus and Mary Magdalene – and involving the 24 High Priests of Jerusalem. Was that all?

We must explicitly believe what is written in these books because the material expands our minds…
