Ijust read what Wikipedia had to say about the false legends concerning Mary Magdalen. Unless the French lines included the house of Judah, they are not blood relatives of Jesus Christ. However, if you believe that Jesus is the New Adam, then since we are all descendants of Adam, we are all related to Jesus. But going all the way back to Adam is cheating.
Looking at the Hypostatic Union, God the Word, the Logos, doesn’t need to have offspring or to do the things that the blasphemers write about, since all of creation is his work and all of our appetites were designed by Him. The fact that He took on human nature is beyond our comprehension.
It was a subtle jab at the French National Character. Not an attack on the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
