My concern stems from the fact that this sort of announcement stems not from honest inquiry and historical scholarship, but from a desire to discredit Christianity by fabricating a false history replete with instances of “patriarchal conspiracies” to deny feminists what they think is their due.

I don't know anything about this Prof. King, but her bio doesn't reassure:

“Karen L. King is Hollis Professor of Divinity, Harvard University’s oldest endowed professorship (1721), and is the first woman to hold this chair. Trained in comparative religions and historical studies, she pursues teaching and research specialties in the history of Christianity. Her particular theoretical interests are in discourses of normativity (orthodoxy and heresy), gender studies, and religion and violence.”

I understand and agree. But it still leaves me with the conclusion that whatever implications this revelation (real or fiction) implies, it doesn’t really make any difference to me. I say this because if there was a ‘wife’ I don’t find it impossible to believe that it is a something unnatural, like much of today’s much hyped perversions masquerading as ‘normal.’ It only brings my perception of spirituality closer what is really ‘normal’.
