Sir Leigh Teabing:
And then, my dear, Jesus goes on to tell Mary Magdalene that it's up to her to continue his Church. Mary Magdalene, not Peter. The Church was supposed to be carried on by... a woman. Few realize that Mary was descended from kings, just as her husband was. Now, my dear, the word in French for "Holy Grail".
Sophie Neveu:
Le Saint Graal.
Sir Leigh Teabing:
From the Middle English, Sangreal, of the original Arthurian legend. Now, as two words. Can you translate for our friend?
Sophie Neveu:
Sang real. It means "royal blood."
Sir Leigh Teabing:
When the legend speaks of the chalice that held the blood of Christ, it speaks, in fact, of the female womb that carried Jesus' royal bloodline.
Sophie Neveu:
But how could Christ have a bloodline, unless...
Sir Leigh Teabing:
Mary was pregnant at the time of the crucifixion. For her own safety and for that of Christ's unborn child, she fled the Holy Land and came to France. And here, it is said, she gave birth to a daughter, Sarah.
Sophie Neveu:
They know the child's name.
Robert Langdon:
A little girl.
Sir Leigh Teabing:
Yes.
Robert Langdon:
If that were true, it's adding insult to injury.
Sophie Neveu:
Why?
Robert Langdon:
The pagans found transcendence through the joining of male to female.
Sophie Neveu:
People found God through sex?
Robert Langdon:
In paganism, women were worshipped as a route to heaven, but the modern Church has a monopoly on that in salvation through Jesus Christ.
