Feel free to also post your comments there. I've listened to it and it's quite a very very good interview.
Father Wauck Comments on...
* the Annunciation (includes the Gospel Reading from 03/25/06, Luke 1:26-38).
* What is it that makes the Da Vinci code compelling and popular with millions of people around the world.
* A person who reads this novel and treats it as "Fact" is making a huge error.
* Where we should start when evaluating the inaccuracies contained in the Da Vinci Code.
* The Gnostic Gospels. (The best "cure" for thinking the Gnostic Gospels have validity is read them!)
* The Council of Nicea: Who called it, why it was called, what was its purpose.
* There is no coherent theological system contain among the Gnostic Gospels.
* Why it is important for Catholics to believe that Jesus wasn't married.
* The role of women in the Catholic tradition is greater than that of any other religion that we know of.
* The "missing Mary" of the Da Vinci Code is not Mary Magdalene, it is the Blessed Virgin Mary.
* The definition of monk as a one who lives in a monastery
* The canonical status of Opus Dei as a personal prelature (not a sect or an order)
* The Priory of Sion was actually fabricated by a French fraud from the 1950's
* Dan Brown's gigantic exaggeration and narrow interpretation of the practice of corporal mortification
* Opus Dei is not a secretive organization
* The mission of Opus Dei is to promote holiness among lay Catholics, that every baptized person is called to be a saint and an apostle, to convert the "prose of everyday life into heroic verse"
