ABC asks (but in the wee hours): Was Jesus married? (Christianity takes another hit.)

Neither NBC, ABC or PBS would even dare to consider to portray Mohammed and Islam this way. It would cause a firestorm that would explode.

Christianity takes another hit ping!

[NeoCaveman]

McBrien depicts Christ as if he did not always know who he was. Taking his cue from certain biblical scholars, he attributes both ignorance and error to Christ: "Did Jesus, finally, know himself to be the unique Son of God? It is true that Jesus spoke of God as his Father in such a way as to suggest a special, intimate relationship. But there is no incontrovertible proof that he claimed a unique sonship not open to other persons" (p. 551). McBrien even supports the case that Christ could have sinned (p. 547).

This priest who Vargas relies up on wrote the above. Mc Brien is a heretic.

The ABC News special, "Jesus, Mary and DaVinci," is scheduled to air Tuesday, November 3rd, at 3:35 a.m.

3:35 a.m. LOL

It would explode inside their HQs.

What way? What is so offensive about the claim that a 40ish 1st Century Jewish man was married?

[NeoCaveman]

See #3. Anglicans aren't the only ones with cause to be embarrassed by their clergy.

[KC_Conspirator]

Before long there will be claims that Jesus was gay, now that he was black and married.

Any church that doesn't prepare its concregation for persecution probably won't be around in two years. When the persecution in Russia hit in 191, the average church fell from 300 to 15 members. That's a 95% falling away.

Oh Good Grief.There is nothing in the Bible that suggests his marriage.

[Cicero]

Rev. Richard McBrien of Notre Dame is probably the arch-heretic in the U.S. today. He never misses an opportunity to spread dissent and heresy through his connections in the liberal media. When he stands before the throne at the Last Judgment he will have a lot to answer for. It's one thing to sin personally; it's another to have the priestly office and to use it to lead thousands of others astray.

Better to tie a millstone around your neck and jump into the sea, is what the Bible says of such behavior.

[Radix]

Stupid people ask questions, and never seem to consider the primary source for their information.

[Ben Ficklin]

The historical Jesus has been a very popular subject thru-out history.

[Happy2BMe]

As evidenced by much greater persecution against Chrstians and an onslaught of (government-protected) Islam, there really does seem to be a great falling away of Christianity in America.

With the Ten Commandments, prayer, public gatherings of Christians, etc. being banned by the polititians and judges, you are right - persecution is the next step.

Remember that movie a while back (70's) where they would not show Muhammed's face? Probably becase he was so freaking ugly and that mark of Cain likely did not add to his countenance.

"Rev. Richard McBrien of Notre Dame is probably the arch-heretic in the U.S. today."

Geist, do you have any comments on this one?

[Wings-n-Wind]

A wife while here on earth??..... Don't think so...
I do believe our Lord Jesus remains engaged to the love if His life
(His saved ones.... His church... [little "c"])

One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.” And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. -- Revelation 21:9-10

Given the waves of blatant persecutions and ludicrous heresies of our culture and our time... hmmm...
The wedding day may be closer than we think....

Blessings

We should start our own
Jesus Theory: Ours could be
that Jesus really

was a Freeper who
went back in time to derail
the Roman empire,

and to codify
monotheism in terms
that could be read as

consistent with Rand's
Objectivist corpus... Now,
how does this work, will

ABC contact
me about filming a deep,
probing interview?

"Before long there will be claims that Jesus was gay, now that he was black and married."

Oh - you haven't heard? - the queer movement has played on the "Jesus was a queer." theme for at least twenty years now.

It seems the passage where Jesus kissed Peter and Peter's laying his head on Jesus' chest are confirmed signs Jesus was one of them.

It must appease their conscience believing their lifetyle of perversion was defined by Christ himself (NOT!).

[Sir Charles]

I think there is some truth to the rumor that George Washington really had white, curly hair. All I need now is to find some egotistical historian who will make the claim in the proper manner and dig up some indisputable new "evidence".
