Movie News and Discussion

So I just watched The Da Vinci Code again after many years and the central plot of the movie is that two sides have battled for ages over the descendants of Jesus

The core of this battle, is that Jesus fathering a child takes away his divinity and makes him human. The church wants to kill the descendants to keep this hidden, and not reveal to the world that Jesus was not divine, but a mere man.

My question is, how/why does him having a child, take away his godliness? The movie doesnt explain this. I mean, Jesus dying of a wound, like any other human would, seems more non-godly like, than having a child with Maria Magdalene? It doesnt really make sense to me.

Am I missing something?
