The Gospel of Philip explicitly said Jesus kissed Mary Magdalene in the mouth, making the disciples jealous of her. Other gospels in the Nag Hammadi texts also spoke of the intimate relationship between her and Jesus, even referring to her as his "beloved."<br /><br />Jesus gave special Kingdom of God lessons to a young man all night.<br /><br />""...the young man, looking at Jesus, loved him and began to beseech him that he might be with him...they went into the house of the young man, for he was rich. And the young man, looking at Jesus, loved him...and after six days Jesus gave him an order; and when the evening had come, the young man went to him, dressed with a linen cloth over his naked body. And he remained with him that night, because Jesus taught him the mystery of the kingdom of God."(Secret Gospel of Mark)."<br /><br />Saul/Paul made nice Christians damn Christ or die so they say...and he gets to be Chief Apostle and Bible writer.<br /><br />Peter kills two well meaning Church members for not turning over all their money.<br /><br />Revelation God and Jesus get to knock off most of the planet and yet still get to be one True God and Son Jesus.<br /><br />What's UCG's problem?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-68968688830680676572012-11-08T05:15:57.601-08:002012-11-08T05:15:57.601-08:00Christian Perfectionists: Throwing good men under...Christian Perfectionists: Throwing good men under the bus since 33 CE.<br /><br />Oh...look...the Karma Fairy has left for Cincinnati<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-18997455354645405212012-11-08T00:39:27.179-08:002012-11-08T00:39:27.179-08:00I'm gonna miss Rhodes and his articles in the ...I'm gonna miss Rhodes and his articles in the GN (and former WNP). His articles looking at the historical causes of present problems in America, Europe, the Middle East, etc. were pretty much the only articles I read from the mag. I can only but wish him well. Here's one fan who'll miss his work.
