Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and Da Vinci

Was the historical Jesus really a married man? Could he have even been a father? Was Mary Magdalene his wife? And do their direct descendants still survive today? As can be readily imagined, by raising controversial questions such as these, the best-selling novel The Da Vinci Code has sparked a vigorous debate. In this ABC News special, Elizabeth Vargas explores the Code’s extraordinary claims by traveling to significant locations around the world to seek out what evidence may exist to support them. Religion and art history scholars, an aristocrat who believes his family to have married into Jesus’ bloodline in the 12th century, and others offer their perspectives. (44 minutes)
