I found a 1" square of newspaper that has both of the words "Obama" and "Muslim" on it. There are no whole sentences or any context, but let's all assume from it that Obama is a Muslim.

I think Lee62 is referring to THC's theory that Jesus was married to Mary Magdelene. I remember seeing that show.

Lee62 - I wasn't attacking, just pointing out a fact, I guess its a little more difficult to see the sarcasm online. If the History Channel already knew he was married then why would they need this proof? I regulary watch the History Channel, they rarely have proof, its a possibility without irrevocable evidence, its was speculation and conjecture as most shows about the biblical era. They give you a potential and beleivable answer, its up to the viewer to decide if it fits their sensibilities.

Personally, I think Martin Scorsese forged this papyrus to support his movie "The Last temptation of Christ". :)

Do you believe everything you read on the Internet? Should you believe everything you read in papyri? I’m not willing to totally rule out that the son of God may have taken a wife. However not everything that is written is true. Jesus was a common name, so it’s not necessarily referring to the son of God. It’s just a snippet of text, therefore it’s hard to know what the true context of the text is. It’s possibly a forgery anyway. Regardless it should be taken with a grain of salt.

Yep he was Jewish, but it was the Christians who 'adopted' his ideology...besides who ever heard of a Jewish boy whose mother wasn't screaming that her boy get married and produce the cherished grandkids?...just saying - I don't see why it would be such a stretch, that's all.
