Angry about author Dan Brown's claims that Jesus Christ married Mary Magdalene and they had a child whose bloodline remains to this day, Sister Mary is quietly reprising her protest on the French Riviera.She says, "I wasn't going to do another protest over the film, because I didn't think it was necessary. But the world needs to know where we stand"
