Except that there WERE women in his travelling group.

And some people point to circumstantial evidence in the Gospels and contemporary custom that Jesus may well have been married.

One of my Jewish friends has pointed out to me that back in the day a good Jewish boy would not reach age 33 without being married. His mama wouldn’t have allowed it.

I doubt that the creator of that image meant to start a theological or even historical discussion.

However, I have always doubted the Christian church's teaching that Jesus never married. At that time, in that place, a 30 year old unmarried Jewish man would be unheard of. Whether it was Mary Magdalene as some have claimed, or someone else, is certainly unclear.

The way I heard it, and I’m sure those will correct me if it’s wrong, that a 30-year-old single man would not be allowed around children.

Repeat old joke: of course Jesus was a Jew: his mother thought her son was a god and he thought his mother was a virgin!

Merely voting isn't enough. You need to vote against the fascists. We know who they are.
