Jesus' Wife

[DeistPaladin]

If Jesus had a wife, and was not without sin, because he enjoyed the pleasures of the flesh,

"Sin" is a bogus concept, I'm sure most here will agree, and thus can be defined and redefined in any way in order to suit any theological agenda. For example, a church that features a married Jesus might decide that sex within marriage is never sinful and thus Jesus still didn't sin and thus he still fits the theological bill that's completely made up anyway.

In fact, correct me if I'm wrong, but "sin" is actually defined by Christianity as inconsistent with what Jesus wills. Thus, Jesus can't sin because Jesus wills what he wills. The tautology ensures he always fits with this arbitrary standard.

It's the same as StatlerWaldorf's definition of "goodness". Since his god is the measure by which he defines "good", that's how he knows that his good is "good". What do you mean, that's begging the question?

Without more information, we are left to imagine what that meant for how they allowed women to work in churches or what role they gave women in society.

My wife has been especially fascinated by this theory. While I don't normally take such wild speculation seriously, as we can't possibly know anything about the alleged Jesus even if we assume he existed and so he can be anything to anyone, I also find this possibility interesting enough to briefly muse on.

Forgive me, Min, but I must indulge...

If Mary was banging Jesus, that would make her the natural primary church authority after Jesus' death. After all, a woman knows her mate in ways no one else can. Seriously, my wife has noticed things about me that I've never even noticed about myself. It's spooky sometimes how shrewdly socially observant women can be.

Could she have thus arisen as the leader of a rival faction? Hello, Paul saw Jesus in a vision while she have been fucking the holy man and was his significant other while he was on earth. Guess who's the better authority on what Jesus preached?

Maybe that's why Paul and his followers were such maladjusted misogynists who seemed to make a point about women shutting up in church and not having any teaching role or other authority.
