We are waiting for French Professional Archaeologists and the French Ministry of Culture to endorse the researches of “Isaac Ben Jacob” – and his “researches” of Bérenger Saunière – as well as the “true lineage of the Priory of Sion” (The Merovingian Proletariat?). This is another laughing stock in the annals of “researches of the crazy”!

This only shows to demonstrate how desperate the believers in Rennes-le-Château and the Priory of Sion really are – they need to invent pure rubbish every five minutes to keep the bogus and false mystery going – and to call it “The Adventure Continues!”

Here is the blurb surrounding the book, a veritable dizzying concoction of uncritical and undisciplined unbridled fantasy:

In 1891, a country priest lost in the mountains of the Razès noted in his diary: “Discovery of a tomb.” In less than ten years, Bérenger Saunière became one of the richest men in Languedoc, financed by more than 250 European monasteries. No Visigothic treasure, no coded parchments, no Christic descent. So, what?

The analysis of Saunière's account books reveals a staggering fact: the donor cities – Amiens, Soissons, Troyes, Lille, Brussels – coincide with the ancient Manichaean centers of France. From this discovery, a dizzying investigation is born. From the ziggurats of Babylon to the brotherhoods of Pyrenean penitents, from the *Book of Tobit* to the encrypted poetry of Venantius Fortunatus, Isaac Ben Jacob unearths a Cult of the Dead of Chaldean origin, transmitted by Manichaeism, perpetuated by the Cathars, and infiltrated into the heart of the mendicant orders.

At the center of the magical rites practiced by underground religious currents: a talisman – the Golden Cross of Toledo, symbol of Constantine, insignia of the Merovingian kings – the possession of which conferred the power of intercession between the living and the dead. An object of divine origin, coveted by the Habsburgs, hunted by the Nazis, sought by Alfonso XIII of Spain.

This book substitutes the romantic legend with a historical reality that is far more disturbing: that of a secret organization and a cult which are the foundations of a strange geopolitical project.

Never mind, there is an English equivalent of this very same madness just around the corner inspired by “Lineage of Jesus Christ” of the late expert Timothy Wallace-Murphy – and that will only be as equally as funny!

THEY JUST CANNOT STOP. The “experts” in Rennes-le-Château and the Priory of Sion – they are embraced by everybody except by the people that really matter. Their Critics, the Professional Body of Archaeology and the French Ministry of Culture.

It is with those bodies that the Mythmakers need to convince, and as usual, will FAIL MISERABLY.

Note: Vincent Laniol should find out for himself that the so-called “treasure” of Rennes-le-Château was not mentioned during Bérenger Saunière’s Ecclesiastical Trial in Carcassonne 1910-1911 – and the whole subject matter was only first invented by Noël Corbu during the mid-1950s – and only after the death of the priest’s housekeeper Marie Denarnaud on 29 January 1953. Noël Corbu’s initial claims (that he himself later discarded when he moved to the Château of Saint-Félix-Lauragais in 1964) – have turned into an extensive database and dictionary of the wildest and craziest mythmaking. It remains to be seen exactly how many Vincent Laniol’s there are.
