The Da Vinci Code The book and the movie have garnered great controversy. Considering the story line plays with fact and fiction, readers and scholars will pick apart the content and individually play with the meaning. There is no comparison between the book and chiropractic but there is between the controversy and the epilogue. Many within the church have condemned the book and crafted Sunday sermons following the opening of the movie to discuss the book and the truth. Time investigating and focusing relates to a clearer understanding of content often generating further interest and dialogue. Making lemonade from lemons has always been the hallmark of a true leader and coming to terms with right and wrong is part of it. I am not scholarly enough to pass judgment on book content, I listened to the tape, but as a movie it was too long and long-winded. But, as a chiropractor, I realize that enlightening opportunities are too few and less taken advantage of. Each Sunday sermon condemning the book and movie by educating the congregation with truth was another opportunity taken not lost. Every article good or bad concerning chiropractic is an opportunity to shed light on reality or extend the good news even further. Church leaders seizing the moment made the most of it. With each door of understanding opened, more entered than left. As chiropractors, we are always faced with skepticism and downright ignorance of our work. As chiropractors we are usually justifying our care and purpose. Usually our public relations are reactive rather than active, save those proactive amongst us. The debate surrounding this book and movie has also garnered enough interest to create the groundswell of tickets sold. Considering that another movie, The Passion of Christ was far and away a larger success, proves that when light is shined on a topic, the enlightened pass the best judgment. There is a lesson for us. Opportunities will always present itself allowing us to share the good news of chiropractic. Prior to being reactive, review your patient and community educational programs. Less time exaggerating the wonders of chiropractic and more on the true science and art of our care will also pass judgment and bode well for you. There are always lessons out there and every person passing your office is a student waiting for you, the teacher, to arrive. When the time comes, take advantage of it.
