An ancient Gnostic fragment suggests Jesus was married? Chris discusses a controversial story in the New York Daily News, involving a Harvard professor who has presented an "anonymous" fragment of what is said to be an ancient Gnostic gospel that reads: "Jesus said
to them, my wife ..." This seems to be the latest assault against the Biblical record, but the details of the story reveal an interesting pattern of flawed scholarship -- especially considering the background of this particular Harvard professor. Also discussed is the Jesuit's involvement in Syria and their statements about the conflict there.
