Albadran ( 74 )able and contradictory statements, which they alone can swallow like boiled eggs. They can believe, without the least hesitation, that Mary was both virgin and wife, that Joseph was both spouse and husband, thatJames, Jossi, Simon, and Judah were both cousins of Jesus(pbuh)and his brothers, that Jesus(pbuh) is perfect God and perfect man, and that “the Son of God,” “the Son of Man,” “the Lamb,” and “the Son of David (pbuh)” are all one and the same person! They feed themselves on heterogeneous and opposed doctrines, which these terms represent with as greedy an appetite as they feel for bacon and eggs at breakfast.
