< The Last Supper of November 6th 2023 >

So much i want to say on this subject, but my favorite theory at the moment is that the marys (maybe just Magdalene) fled to modern day France to escape persecution.  If they believed that Jesus was God, they must have recognized Mary as a sort of arc of the covenant to house it for nine months, and if she wasn't perfect before hand she would have been made perfect during conception.  The guy who came up with the trinity was declared a saint, but then later had his sainthood redacted for other heresys he preached (could possibly still be a saint).  I once posted myself saying a rosary on social media, and I couldn't believe how many people jumped in to tell me it was a demon compelling me to do so and all caps DO NOT PRAY TO MARY!!! With bible quotes, demanding bible quotes from me to justify it,  Which kind of made me want to do so even more, prayer as rebellion?. For Christians to sweep her under the rug is ridiculous, I get it, but why wouldn't God have made Joseph give birth, that would have been even more incredible... I could go on

Humans really do take thinking seriously; willing to kill each other over the
tiniest, it seems, details. But one person's tiny is another person's immense.
I remember a physicist who specialized in string theory being denied tenure
because he insisted that 11 dimensions were required instead of 10.

Feel free to go on if you want.
