Scientific Tests Show 'Gospel of Jesus' Wife' Wasn't Faked

Here's the bottom line from more than 60 pages of studies focusing on a piece of papyrus inscribed with a text quoting Jesus as referring to "my wife": Months of lab tests show that document is not a modern-day forgery, as skeptics had claimed. The papyrus and the ink go back at least 1,100 years. But despite all that, some of the skeptics will never be convinced.

The studies, published Thursday in the Harvard Theological Review, represent the latest chapter in the years-long saga surrounding what Harvard theologian Karen King has dubbed the Gospel of Jesus' Wife. King brought the text into the global spotlight in September 2012, at a symposium in Rome, but the publication of her analysis was held up for more than a year when questions were raised about the text's authenticity.

I don't get why people would have a problem with that.

You can still do God's work and have a good old foop.

Hilarious so you take the words of some men who wrote about Jesus but not others, without any evidence to back the historicity of any of them.


DOH
