Professor King responded to The Atlantic's article by Ariel Sabar (click here for the brilliant investigation) about the, so called, Gospel of Jesus' Wife. She conceded and said that "It tips the balance toward forgery." Here's the report: http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/06/karen-king-responds-to-the-unbelievable-tale-of-jesus-wife/487484/
Sadly, as a commentator said, it would be far worse for the credibility of an evangelical university if this were to be done there. Fraud is fraud and King knew what would it entail if she was wrong. It's a shame she could make fantastical statements and will likely be untouched. Well, she will be for future scholarship, at least with me.
