I have spent some time looking at your site and I found it very interesting. I have a passion for truth and I am deeply against the suppression of it in any area of life whether it be religion, spirituality, history, government, or whatever. I hear you making two types of claims, one experiential and the other historical. Your experiential one is that in your crystal ball you have seen that Jesus was married to Mary. That is experience of yours cannot be proven or disproved and neither can your experience prove or disprove whether or not the historical person of Jesus from Nazareth was actually married the the historical person of Mary from Magdala. For this reason, I will not attempt to argue against your experience, but I also do not see it as valid evidence into the question of the marital status of Jesus of Nazareth. Your other claim is not experiential, it is historical. You are claiming that Jesus of Nazareth was actually married to Mary of Magdala. This is either true or false and what we have to work with to answer this question is the historical manuscript evidence that we today. I am curious, have you read the article that I posted about The Da Vinci Code? I find Dr. Bock's article very compelling on this issue even though it is only a short introduction to the issues involved. If not yet read the article, below is an excerpt about the supposed marriage of Jesus: "Problem 1: Was Jesus Married? Basic to the story line is the claim that Jesus Christ was married to Mary Magdalene and that many in the church knew (as did people like Leonardo Da Vinci later on in history). The evidence for this claim comes from two extra biblical gospels, the Gospel of Mary Magdalene 17:10 Ariadne,
