Laura Bynum Revealed

Q. What is your motto or maxim? A. Be one with yourself and all things will come to you - Lao Tzu Q. If you could meet any historical character, who would it be and what would you say to him or her? A. Mary Magdalene. There's a lot of conflicting information out there about her role in the life of Christ. In 1969, the Catholic Church went on the record saying that Mary Magdalene was not, and never had been a prostitute, as she'd been portrayed, willingly or no, for years. There are other documents out there that suggest Mary was a larger part of Jesus' life than is expressed in the Bible. I've never understood the need for a virgin birth, never thought of sex as anything other than a natural way to progress the race and express love, and would find it pretty normal and natural were the Lord to have had a mate. I would love to talk to her about this and get the real skinny on something so pivotal. Q. What trait is most noticeable about you? A. I have a strong sense of justice. Or maybe it's more an intolerance of BS. Q. What is your favorite occupation, when you’re not writing? A. I love to cook. Q. What is your biggest pet peeve? A. Hypocrisy. Learn more about Laura Bynum
