To me? It only makes perfect sense that he had a wife and family.

Much of the faith and its continuity is based and central to a strong family. This means marriage, fidelity etc etc between a man and a woman.

Where the perversion exists is in writing women out of the picture. Kinda like the muslims still do, but writing them in as property.

Women have not been written out of the picture.

That is a fallacy.

Women are mentioned many times in the New Testament and were among Jesus’ followers.

There is no perversion in the Gospels or the books of the NT that follow them.

To compare Christianity in any way to Islam is perverted.

I am not trying to be rude, but even though you may hear a lot about family in church you do not read much of it in the gospel.

In fact among other things in matt 10:36 Jesus said, And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household.

And no doubt Jesus experienced this himself, most likely his mother and the ones called his sisters and brothers.

I think where the perversion exists is for people to claim to be Christian but spend their entire life trying to prove the words of Christ to be garbage.

It was Christianity that was at the forefront of freeing women from their historic role (especially in the ancient middle east) as chattel.

Furthermore, it was in cultures dominated by Christianity that women were first elevated to equality.

Writing women out the picture? I usually get accused of “worshiping Mary” because I'm Catholic! Man we Catholics just can't win with some people!
