Mary Magdalene is called, in the early church, "The Apostle to the Apostles". She was, generally known, throughout early Christianity up until the Middle Ages as an Apostle of great importance (greater than Paul, indeed greater than any other follower of Christ), as well as a Prophetess and Saint in her own right, with her own important gospel (http://www.gnosis.org/library/marygosp.htm).

It's only until the deeply male-dominated political upheaval of much later years that she's purposefully confused with the prostitute that Jesus forgives at a rich man's supper. Perhaps it's a conflation of her status within the Apostles. mixed-up with her gender that marks her as Christ's wife, or perhaps it's the literal truth, but it doesn't matter ...

Mary Magdalene is a great Apostle, Saint and learned woman of the Christian faith, period, whether her role as Christ's wife is literal or symbolic. Any true Christian worth their salt can't claim she's anything other.

Defensive much?

Defensive of what? Mary Magdalene's worth? Sure! She's a worthy wife of Christ, if that was her literal status, worthy of admiration even if she wasn't -- either way, well deserving of 'shipping.

Read harder, anon.

lol you saying that true Christian needs to accept what you're saying as if someone had commented telling OP how wrong they are.

Alas, I fell for the troll. Never mind. *pats you and OP*

Then if history is on your side and you know it, why worry?

Unless you're failing at trolling ...

I'm starting to believe OP wanted to troll.

Yes, I believe you're right, but it's such an incredibly lame troll bait. Who doesn't love La Magdalene?
