We chat about the Infancy Gospel of James. What do we know about Joseph and Mary? We know they are the parets of Jesus? But what about their lives before all that Jesus stuff started happening? What was Mary like as a child? How and when did she meet Joseph? What was Joseph like? What's this I hear about an Immaculate Conception? The Infancy Gospel of James tackles alot of these questions, and tries to provide us with answers. But did the authors of this gospel really think people would take their stories as facts? Or did they, and their readres, know that they were merely commenting on the Bible? Why did they write this Gospel? What was their point? We explore all this, and much more, in this week's episode.
