My article at ISN Zurich

While it is distressing that mobs can restrict cultural freedom, liberals should be concerned that our governments too act mala fide with élan. In 2006, The Da Vinci Code, based on a best selling novel of the same name by Dan Brown, was released in India. This controversial novel and movie propagated Donovan Joyce’s 1973 theory that Jesus married Mary Magdalene and their bloodline survives to this day. While it was not banned in Christian majority countries, this movie, which was cleared by the Central Board of Film Certification, was either banned or suspended in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Nagaland, Meghalaya and Punjab.
