LOL Write it large, small, bold, italic, whatever you like. It is easily proved from Scriptures that none of those are brothers of Christ in the sense that we use the word and that you argue.

So, go ahead, rewrite and reinterpret Scriptures to suit yourself. At least now you know you're deliberately adding to Scriptures and maybe you can figure out what the implications of that are if you haven't rewritten other portions of Scriptures to suit yourself as well.

If you're still even mildly interested in the Truth the Scriptures contain you might want to go ahead and read post #171 where the details of what the Scriptures clearly say about your examples are spelled out. If not, fine, just another case of someone writing their own Bible by applying The Lego Block Method of Biblical Interpretation so they can ignore context, stick verses together any way they like, and make up their own scriptures to help them build their own religion.

have a wonderful day

I didn't. I simply put out the relevant Scriptures and got that rant in return.

My argument is that the Scripture says Jesus's "brothers" were James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas.

Judas (or Jude), according to Wikepedia is the author of the Book of Jude who also claims to be the brother of James (of the Scripture quoted to you).

It looks like no argument, even direct Scripture "His Brothers" has any direct meaning to you here.

It is the Sophistry approach to the Bible that chooses it's own wisdom over the Scriptures. In this case to say that James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas were not sons of Mary.

I wonder what she would have to say about that being their mother?
