So why don't you believe Him? And notice, I don't have to answer this question, as this question does not apply to me, and it does mean that, initial plausibility is high for me because of what I believe, but for you, since you take His words here to be symbolic or metaphoric or allegoric, the...

"Bunch of Mary's" is like exactly Biblical Scripture. Who is the famous "other Mary" in the Gospels, in your opinion? And don't forget Mary Magdalene. This was a case of mistaken identity, somebody thought, because evidently Jesus as a boy spent a lot of time with his cousins (so much so that...
