re: What really matters

One of the central themes of Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code is that Jesus had it going on with Mary Magdalene and had a child and that the church has been covering it up for centuries. Well, I've seen alot of statements and debate about whether or not Christ was married, and I have to say ... SO WHAT?!

First off, need I remind everyone here at the Da Vinci code is found in the Fiction section?

And more importantly, whether or not Jesus was married takes absolutely nothing away from the real reason He was here. To suffer and die on a cross.

And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death — even death on a cross! Philippians 2:8 (New International Version)

Jesus gave everything - his life, his humanity, and if you believe Dan Brown, his love and family as payment for the sins of mankind.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
John 3:16 (New International Version)

So, in the final analysis, I have to ask. Whether or not Jesus was married to Mary, who watched him die - BTW, does it really matter?

Not to me.
