Let's see, Brown has Jesus being married to Mary Magdalene at the wedding in Cana.

On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus also was invited to the wedding with his disciples. John 2:1 ESV

Since when does a groom need an invitation to his own wedding?

After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother and shis brothers1 and his disciples, and they stayed there for a few days. John 2:12 ESV

For some reason I cannot imagine a young Jewish man going home with his mother, brothers and buddies after his wedding. :)

True, but that wasn't my point. Everyone seems to think of Jesus being married as a burning issue rather than as the total non-issue it actually is.

Whether or not he was or wasn't married has absolutely no bearing on his divinity. Period. OTOH, the Da Vinci code is about as accurate Bellesile's (sp?) treatise on gun ownership during Colonial times...
