Mrs. Christ

[Angrboda]

"Good Lord, the little stoner's got a point." (You do still stone witches and unruly children, don't you GC?)

To be fair, as evidence, I think this means dick — for either side.


I think it's just fun to have a little chuckle and a giggle at the theist's expense. Even if it is of no real evidentiary value.

The point is given the disparity of what early xtians believed the issue of whether or not jesus was married was fairly minor.

Today, of course, sexually repressed xtian shitheads can work themselves into a lather over such questions but back then they had bigger fish to fry.

Realistically, why would jesus need a wife??
He had 12 stupid sheep following him around ready to suck his dick on command.

... because they're men Cinjin. Rather revolting men with curly hair and beards. Men who likely have hygiene issues and smell like dying animals. Men.
Would you like your dick sucked by twelve men Cinjin? Be honest, you'd rather have Mrs Christ any day.

You do understand that the 'lack of authenticity' argument does more damage to your cause than ours, right? Think about it!

Besides which, even if it is shown to be a fake, either ancient or modern, this whole episode stands as a perfect showcase for the peer review process. The evidence was presented for analysis, relevant professors examined it, and are now presenting their educated opinions. The story is far from over, though.

This is exactly the sort of thing we mean when we ask for evidence of claims. We're not (always) asking for unreasonable impossibilities, just something to examine.

From the original story.

The provenance of the papyrus fragment is a mystery, and its owner has asked to remain anonymous. Until Tuesday, Dr. King had shown the fragment to only a small circle of experts in papyrology and Coptic linguistics, who concluded that it is most likely not a forgery.

So, the people who handled it and examined it concluded it is authentic and the ones who have not are questioning it? This is, frankly, exactly the kind of shit one expects from xtian asswipes desperate to retain their fairy tale belief system.

Scientific examination usually establishes the veracity of these things. The James Ossuary and Jehoash Tablet were found to be forgeries as were the so-called "Lead Codices" from last year. The Gabriel Revelation Stone and the Dead Sea Scrolls were found to be authentic, as were the Nag Hammadi gospels and the gospel of judas.

We already know that before the church unleashed its campaign to establish "orthodoxy" there were many strange beliefs under the banner of xtianity. Far more and far more varied than the collection of shitwits we have walking around now.

Give it some time, Un-d, science will find the truth and you won't ever give a flying fuck anyway because you are committed to upholding bullshit.

Let's play what if..

what if Jesus was married to a woman. What then? What changes?
