Come on, if you read a fictional book, but portions are factual, the facts from the fictional statements start to become distorted.
i think clickwir said it pretty well. you can't have a fictional book without some facts in it. some of the best novels are the ones that make you seriously wonder whether some of the things in the book are true or not. but take it with a grain of salt. i really don't see why people have to get their panties all bunched up about this book. sure, it made me think, and made me question some things a lot more than i would have. but in the end, i know that it's fiction, and not to interpret any of it as history. that some people perceive it to be factual literature is their own problem.
