Geek said:What an amazing read
Geek said:It is a huge book. I loved every page. It is actually the middle of a trilogy. It is the story of Mary Magdalen as told by her. She starts off being sold into slavery and goes to a brothel. She becomes a priestess and winds up Marrying Jesus. It is a very spicy read with much cursing and lots of sex, so if that is not your style beware. It also is very beautiful and love story between her and Jesus is wonderful. Let me know if you read it, I would love to discuss it with you

The vast majority of christians find anything different offensive.Christy said:To the vast majority of Christians, the story would be offensive, since most don't hold the believe that Jesus and Mary M were lovers. :shrug:

But I think that's the point of movies/books like this - to offend Christians. Otherwise why would they do it?

Well, Jai just outed Oz as a horny dude who chokes his woman out, so I really can't think about Jesus right now.Christy said:I've honestly just always hated stuff that turns Jesus into a horny dude.
You can't "think differently" about Scripture. It is what it is, not what people want it to be.elaine said:Because they think differently, they're not narrow minded.
