But if either of us were being crucified, I think we'd rely on our sisters to look after our mothers. Maybe Jesus' failure to do so is why the Catholics are so insistent on the idea that Mary remained a virgin and Jesus was an only child. <BR/><BR/>Personally, I think Jesus was just still holding a grudge from when he was little and his sisters yelled at him whenever he played dress-up in their clothing, but the record is distressingly silent on that count.TEDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07765245186357910074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080750207800492571.post-54591915075538513422008-03-22T11:04:00.000-04:002008-03-22T11:04:00.000-04:00And Jesus entrusted John to Mary and Mary to John....And Jesus entrusted John to Mary and Mary to John.
