This is far from a new enlightened theory. I read a book 30 years ago called the Jesus Conspiracy, or some such idiocy which embraced this theory and carried it to Mary (there seem to be 3 Marys) having fled to France and producing Jesus's son and the bloodline supposedly still flows in the Rothchilds, or some such rot.
There was Mary the Mother, Mary the Prostitute and the Magdeline. It is the Magdeline targeted as his wife. She seems to have traveled with him, so the idea goes and women did not travel with men they were not married to, and he was a Rabbi, which required him to take a wife. This book also proposed that the wedding where Christ made wine from water was his own to the Magdeline.
I shrugged and discounted the ego required to write such a missive, much less the missive itself. The Knights Templar were mixed in and supposedly the guardians of the secret in France. An entertaining read, but fiction no less.

Good stuff - thanks!
I also heard (but have never read it) that Mary, the mother of Jesus was swept away to England via the trade ships out of the Middle East so as to protect her from Roman (and Jewish) persecution.
So many, many lies.
Matthew 24
4Jesus told them, "Don't let anyone mislead you. 5For many will come in my name, saying, `I am the Messiah.' They will lead many astray. 6And wars will break out near and far, but don't panic. Yes, these things must come, but the end won't follow immediately.
Luke 21
7"Teacher," they asked, "when will all this take place? And will there be any sign ahead of time?"
8He replied, "Don't let anyone mislead you. For many will come in my name, claiming to be the Messiah[1] and saying, `The time has come!' But don't believe them. 9And when you hear of wars and insurrections, don't panic. Yes, these things must come, but the end won't follow immediately."
