if you do....evidence or opinions would be good. the Devinci Code really got me thinking. do you think there was a female pope?
plus that thing were it shows that jesus was married and had a kid. what are your opinions on that too?

the book isnt the only thing that got me thinking. there was a documentary about the female pope aswell. really gets your attention.

Answer 1

There's a lot of evidence pointing towards a Pope Joan. I think there's a good chance that she existed. There was a TV special about her recently. It outlined all the evidence pointing towards her existence.

God bless!

Answer 2

Little is concept approximately her through actuality that she did no longer exist. An array of reference books, from the Encyclopaedia Britannica to the Oxford Dictionary of Popes, push aside Pope Joan as a mythical or mythical verify, not greater somewhat than Paul Bunyan or previous King Cole. scholars in many cases tend to agree. The chief vulnerable spot of the Pope Joan tale is the absence of any extremely-present day info of a female pope for the dimensions of the dates counseled for her reign. In each and each representation, clerical information demonstrate somebody else conserving the papacy and doing deeds that are transcribed in church historic previous. yet another impediment is the hollow between the alleged social accumulating and the interior music of it. no longer till ultimately the thirteenth century–4 hundred years after Joan, by way of between the main approved expenditures, ruled–does any element out of a female pope look in any information. that's comparable to word breaking out merely now that England in 1600 had a queen named Elizabeth.

Answer 3

The female as a goddess/spiritual figurehead died with the coming of Christianity. Almost all of the early civilizations had "goddesses" of fertility and several other non-Christian religions have both male and female gods.

I firmly believe Jesus was married with a child, because it is stressed in the Bible to "go forth and procreate for the Lord". The only reason you're supposed to have sex is to bear children to strengthen the religion.

I think the Gnostic scrolls they found were genuine, and I think there is a lot of information hidden in the Vatican that will never see the light of day.

Answer 4

I Think there was a female pope, for a few days, she was destroyed by people 'cause she was pregnant (beautiful story).
