Mary Magdalene meets Mary Sue

[ Thanks David B., now we're all going to Hell ] The New Yorker publishes a Passion Mary Sue.

Everyone says that he’s just totally good and devoted to all humanity and that he was sent to save us and that’s why he doesn’t have time for a girlfriend, although I swear I saw Mary Magdalene doodling in the sand with a stick, writing “Mrs. Jesus Christ” and “Merry Xmas from Mary and Jesus Christ and All the Apostles,” with little holly leaves all around it.

Who is Mary Sue? Teresa Nielsen Hayden tells you more than you probably want to know about the subject.
