Did Mary Magdalene Manipulate Jesus?

A provocative new biblical theory claims Mary Magdalene was actually history's first spin doctor, rebranding a radical preacher into the Son of God through strategic PR. The paper argues her "brilliant crisis management" transformed Jesus from "just another apocalyptic weirdo" to global icon by emphasizing his miracles while downplaying his weirdest parables. "She basically invented the TED Talk messiah," claims author Dr. Rachel Goldstein, showing scroll fragments where Magdalene apparently edited "love thy neighbor" into "love thy neighbor (but check their social media first)." The theory has outraged theologians but thrilled marketing executives, who now study Magdalene as the patron saint of rebranding. The most damning evidence? The famous "Let he who is without sin" line originally ended with "but seriously, who is without sin? DM me." Meanwhile, megachurch pastors are quietly commissioning "updated" biblical translations with more viral potential.
