"Uh oh...now will begin the quasi-scriptural stuff about how James wasn't really Jesus' brother, that Mary was "ever virgin," and all that other mystical mythical stuff..."

Uh oh, now begins the "let's rationalize" everybody's religious belief away - except mine - the one and only belief.

Uh oh, now begins the "let's rationalize" everybody's religious belief away - except mine - the one and only belief.

Save it. Stick to the facts: The Bible says Jesus had siblings. James was identified as one of those (Matthew 13:53-56; Mark 3:31-35). There are NO citations in the scriptures indicating that the mother of Jesus was a virgin until her death. I dare you to find one.

I was not criticizing anyone's religious belief -- I was simply stating what THE BIBLE says and anticipating inaccurate comments from those who think/claim it says what it clearly does not say.

You are entitled to your own opinion, but not to your own truth.
