Did some female saints claim to have sexual relationships with Jesus?
A viewer asks what Robert thinks of claims that some female saints said they had sexual relationships with Jesus, some even cutting their chest.
Answer
Do not believe a word of it. You can take anything anywhere you want, and the devil will do anything to make Christianity look bad. When I went to Catholic grade school, the nuns would say they were married to Christ, and everyone understood that meant spiritually married; there was no physical union. The most physical union they would have is the same one everybody has, receiving Jesus in the Lord's Supper. But you would expect the devil to take that bit of information, the nun married to Christ, and twist it into some perverted conclusion. So you should be able to answer this yourself: obviously they would not be a saint if they had such imaginations about their relationship with Christ, because it is not physically sexual at all and never will be.
