Lovely, "do not cling to me" is right because Magdalene is the cause of all his 'filthy rags.' Jesus said, "I have not yet ascended to the father" to say: I know you are anxious to be mine but wait until I have ascended into heaven and then you can be mine there. Magdalene was the epitome of darkness and sin and that just does not rise to heaven but must be assumed into heaven as a source for richess to be enjoyed in heaven so the 'ten-fold' rewards can become a reality.

You should drop the idea that woman has an identity of her own apart from being the playground or wonderland of man. Don't forget here that females are man too, but just less masculine wherefore they can be the playground for each other.

You mean that some females are more masculine? Our sexuality is an illusion and is no more than that.

The problem is that males 'think' they know who they are but do they really? An identity problem is normal in both males and females and they will be restless until they find rest in their own true identity and this is the same for both males and females . . . which is what Jaguar Prine claims as the very reason for Magdalene being the favorite apostle = no gender identity in heaven where male and female is equally man-in-the-image-of-God.

I don't know which Bible you were reading, but none of the ones I know of replace her name with "Satan". You're projecting social values associated with prostitutes (which still, were not "the epitome of darkness and sin", even in the supposed time-period of Jesus's life) onto her situation.

You should drop the idea that females are the "playgrounds" of men. It just shows how misogynistic you are.

All that is and all that ever will be is created in sin. Sin is the coming together of two stands in a rout, out of which a new creation comes into existence (if it finds existence in nature).

Since all that exists is intrinsically good, all that is created is good, and therefore sin is good if creation is desired. Evil exists only in the mind of the beholder and so you have the negative hang-up on sin.

Dark is juxtaposed with light as the negative stand in the rout that leads the inquisitive mind to think and that is how Magdalene strikes at the heel of man.

So yes, she is the playground for man (at least for those of us who do not have our mind in the gutter). Might I add here that I included that both male and female can be the playground for each other towards the fulfillment of becoming one, as in 'one in each one' (except with our mind in darkness).

Edited to add that from the above follows that both male and female are man and the woman here is not a female to be exploited but our very own soul, with Magdalene being the cause of our desire to do so.

And please notice that you warped my word "man" into "men." Is that your eyes deceiving you or your mind?

As it is likely that Jesus and Mary are being pictured here as Husband and Wife, I fail to see where your conclusions come from.

Joseph was 'husband' of Magdalene but not Jesus. It was Joseph who took the serpent to be his wife and called her Eve who is here now called Magdalene.

Joseph became known as Jesus when Christ was born unto him and that gave him a dual nature of God and man, with the human identity called Jesus and the God identity called Christ = Jesus Christ in-becoming but not until the Jesus identity is crucified and raised into heaven after which time Magdalene can be recalled as a disciple.

At this time Magdalene was lost, as if left in the dark, because Jesus had just been crucified. She knows his voice intuitly but cannot see him because Jesus (as the human identity of Joseph) is her light by day . . . hence the "do not cling to me" so I can be raised.
