They will dance and jump around those points. Since they can just say god made it that way.
Excuses after excuses with them. Not to mention endless evasions.
Their beliefs lose so much credibility that a child could see the stupidity in it.

i would be quite simply astounded if that were to be proven to occur in humans
You know... I sometimes just have to wonder if Jesus was the world's first famous transexual Maybe "he" was just a popular drag king back in the day... Which would explain possibly why no historian really wanted to say that they knew who he was (it would look bad from their peer's perspectives, of course...)... and thus all we get is this testimony written at least a hundred years after he died that seems to be just plain flaky

Well, either Jesus was a woman who liked going around in drag, a transexual FtM, or some sort of impossible man that makes sense if you rip apart logic
This actually makes a lot more sense out of the bible...
the bible Wrote::18 And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
4:19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
4:20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. They left straight away because they thought it was a pickup line and they had been hard at work fishing all day
the bible Wrote:4:21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.
4:22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him. 'Yoo hoo! Boys!'
The father was probably cursing the hell out of the young men
Quote:4:23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
4:24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.
This can easily be interpreted as metaphor to explain what she was REALLY doing to get her fame throughout all of Syria...
All it takes is a little imagination and a realization that Jesus was a woman in drag Perhaps she even studied medicine?

I really do wonder what she taught in those synagogues? Was it medicine... scripture... or 'something else'?

That would not be our (mine and my congregations) Christian version.
Actually, Matthew 19:10-12 (New International Version)
10The disciples said to him, "If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry." 11Jesus replied, "Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given. 12For some are eunuchs because they were born that way; others were made that way by men; and others have renounced marriage[a]because of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it."
In some translations of ancient texts, individuals identified as eunuchs sometimes historically included men who were impotent with women, as well as those who were celibate. Or he could have been born without member due to a gene abnormailty from having the incorrect pairing of XY chromosones.
The Bible doesn't really talk about his years from 12 to 30. Mybe the Church had an agenda for censoring that? He didn't have to be a Virgin, just that he's celibate after his "missing years".
It doesn't really matter if he was a cross-dresser, or celibabte or impotent to me.
Your claim that sex is the "best" part of life is debateable, but I understand your perspective since you don't believe in a spiritual side to humanity. I personally feel my kids are the best part of my life. But good sex is definately in my top 5.
As far as emaculate conception, I have my doubts about that as well. It wouldn't really matter if he was male or female to me and the "church" rewrote Jesus to a man like they did God to a he. I believe that a part of God is in everyone of us. Something that cohesively turns a mass of electrons andatoms into a reasoning, feeling and self-aware individual. What if Mary lied and she did it with the postman? Wel Jesus would still be a son of God he just had enough cahones to state it out loud. I'm pretty tired so I'm going to finish my documentary and hit the hay and ponder on this some more. I've tried not to dance around the points as much as possible.

So sex is a sin and we aren't suppose to think of such things. How are we suppose to keep the human race going?
This is one of the most retarded things I have read.
Says it all. Kudos binny

"Eunuchs" as in dickless? Just another metaphor for "Homosexual". Jesus reconized some are born thataway.
Quote: ...others were made that way by men;
And the rest are sucked into it.

Meaning homosexuals.
Quote:as well as those who were celibate.
Like celibacy in the RCC. Meaning molesting little boys was more their thing.
Quote: Or he could have been born without member due to a gene abnormailty from having the incorrect pairing of XY chromosones.
Ok. Maybe. maybe Jesus was dickless. Or a dyke. Or a hermaphrodite.
Quote:The Bible doesn't really talk about his years from 12 to 30.
He was 'finding himself'.
Quote: He didn't have to be a Virgin, just that he's celibate after his "missing years".
I would say "He didn't have to be a Virgin, just that he prefered the company of men after his 'missing years'."
I LIKE this game Saerules started!
Quote:Your claim that sex is the "best" part of life is debateable,
I would debate it is debateable right along with you on this one.
And it would have nothing to do with my 'spiritual' side.
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.

Um...what about the impotent male who can screw all day long?
umm,not quite----
Quote:Erectile dysfunction (ED, "male impotence") is a sexual dysfunction characterized by the inability to develop or maintain an erection of the penis sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance.[1]

PS: A wonderful thing about mythical beings such as Jesus is that one may describe him any way one wishes,and attribute any traits one's little heart desires. No one can prove such claims wrong.
