If you don't like my posts, and judging from your responses, I would say that is a safe bet, use the ignore button. Stifle yourself. Your obsession is showing. I always enjoy getting your intelligent well reasoned responses. Seldom have been laved with so much attention from one who is, no doubt, a beautiful and passionate woman. But people are beginning to talk. Don't you think we can peacefully discuss this Jesus with more solemnity. For instance, how do you feel about Jesus's alleged homosexuality. We have no record of Jesus having sex with any woman. He apparently wasn't married like Peter was (according to Paul). I don't think Mary Magdalene was actually his squeeze. He just liked her. I, like Jesus and Gladstone rather like associating with prostitutes for talk. not necessarily for sex. Some men like to "save" fallen or crazy women. Perhaps that is why I am willing to engage in long discussions (in public) on SI. The fact that Jesus wandered around the roads of Judea preaching with a bunch of men (John is always depicted as young and beautiful with long blonde hair, sort of like a Hansen.) John, or whoever the 4th Gospeler was, claimed that he was "the disciple whom Jesus loved" (and he used a word in Greek for carnal love), that he rested his head on Jesus's breast, at the last supper. This is pretty thin gruel to feed the fable of Jesus's homosexuality in my opinion. Of course, it ran in the family (David). I'd like your observations on the question, if you've thought about it, or done some research. I don't know if it bothers you at all. I think homosexuality is a perfectly accepted, even environmentally desirable, behavior pattern. So I don't think the idea that Jesus was queer is deplorable. Your mileage might vary. Then we might discuss Jesus's self perception. He says somewhere "Why do you call me good? Only God in Heaven is good? Is this a denial of his triune god head? I am pretty sure he needed therapy, and was denied it because it wasn't invented yet. Perhaps we could reconstruct an account of his psychoanalysis. It must have been troublesome to a growing boy to have his mother saying that he was conceived by the Holy Ghost and that she was herself of virgin birth, immaculately conceived. Maybe when we finish this, we can discuss Mary's sex life. We know Jesus had brothers (according to Paul) and they were circumcized Jews. We don't know their daddy, but they wandered around with Mary, so it is quite likely that they were hers.
