It really makes no difference whether Jesus was married or not.
He’s still the Firstborn Son of God, and died on the cross as the perfect sacrifice for our sins................

Well, the main point is that Jesus’ mission here on earth was not to get married and sire a genetic line of descendants. This would be a detraction from the real reason He came here.
His mission was to be a sacrifice for all so that jew and gentile alike could inherit eternal life if they believe in Him, and be adopted into God’s family.
God’s need for human sex to accomplish things is nonexistant. He had the power to become flesh, He has the power to make all peoples part of His family without them having to be part of His personal genetic dynasty.

The reason this little "find" is newsworthy is political, not theological. It is publicized with the intention, and will be used, to attempt to undermine the credibility of the Church by discrediting a particular article of faith. Now they can say "See, the church is full of lies spread by a misogynistic sexist patriarchy."
