If this was common information, then why is there only one little fragment which purports to evidence Jesus had a wife ? One would think "that" information would have been in a lot of "fragments" which surfaced here and there. I wonder who found this little tidbit of history and what they are going to gain from it. I am surprised that the special interest groups suggest Jesus had a wife. I bet their political agenda would be better served if they said Jesus' "partner" was a Andrew or Peter. That actually sounds more plausible in our special interest driven society. But then again, it seems as if it is more politically acceptable to not not even mention God's name anywhere or face a lawsuit or a government crackdown -- unless you're muslim then its OK. Thanks B.O. a/k/a B.S ... I wounder if the administration was behind this historical artifact coming to the surface ... ?
