“Jesus isn’t God but Mary Magdalene is a goddess? I mean, what does that mean? If he’s not God, why is he married to a goddess? That part, it drives me crazy.

But, if Brown’s story is true, the cardinal’s in on the grand conspiracy.

“All I have to say is, nobody ever told me to keep secret the fact that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene,” George said.

I’m inclined to believe him.
