    Default Its a girl!....the parthenogenesis of jesus

    lets say we believe the fairy tail of jesus parthenogenesis...

    as we know the sex of humen and most mammals is determined by the X and Y chromosomes, which each individual has one pair of them
    females have 2 same X chromosomes (XX) and men have one X and one Y chromosome (XY) which the offsprings receive from their parents
    so if the offspring inherits the Y from his father will become a male, but if he inherits the X will become a female
    no matter what for sure he will have one X (from his mother)

    naturally it seems unlikely that the offsprings of a possible parthenogenesis from a female (gynecogenesis/gynogenesis) can have any X sex chromosome, so they will be females as well!
    gynogenesis
    "The development of an embryo that contains only maternal chromosomes because the egg has been activated by sperm without fusion of the egg and sperm nuclei"
    due to the logical reason that the offspring inherits ONLY X chromosomes since he doesnt have any access to Y chromosomes at all

    parthenogenesis is a phenomenon which does occur in nature though its unusual for mammals...
    the artificial parthenogenesis of mammals has become doable in lab, but not for humen beings
    however i read here that natural parthenogenesis has probable happened to humen

    In cases of parthenogenesis (virgin birth), an ovum starts to divide by itself without fertilization, producing an embryo in which the paternal chromosomes may be replaced by a duplication of maternal ones. This asexual reproductive method is rare among warm-blooded vertebrates but more common among invertebrates. Pathological parthenogenesis has been observed in higher animals, such as the frog, fowl, and certain mammals. Parthenogenesis usually gives rise to female offspring or sometimes an abnormal male.

    In 1900 Jacques Loeb accomplished the first clear case of artificial parthenogenesis when he pricked unfertilized frog eggs with a needle and found that in some cases normal embryonic development ensued. In 1936 Gregory Pincus induced parthenogenesis in mammalian (rabbit) eggs by temperature change and chemical agents

    There is some evidence, however, that natural parthenogenesis does occasionally occur in humans
    In 1956 the medical journal Lancet published a report concerning 19 alleged cases of virgin birth among women in England, who were studied by members of the British Medical Association. The six-month study convinced the investigators that human parthenogenesis was physiologically possible and had actually occurred in some of the women studied [3]
    assuming that the myth of joshua was any true then naturally he should had been bornt a girl!
    ...or an abnormal man with XX chromosomes which can exist like an abnormal male or a hermaphrodite, who looked like a man but wasnt a real one! (less likely alternative than first option)
    there arent any other possible options, forget about them

    the case of abnormal male with XX chromosome seems that exists since its mentioned in those scientifical articles and studies
    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/q...&dopt=Abstract
    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/d....cgi?id=278850

    this can xplains why the carpenter joshua had such a great regard for all types of eunuchs and that he never got married himself (though the jewish law demanded that) and never is supposed to had any sex (maybe he didnt poccess the "equipement" in the first place as the natural procedure of parthenogenesis reassure us) :laughing:

    also it gives a good reason why for first time in human history, a constitution (christianity) started showing so great hate against the male and female genitals (the world was unfamiliar with such unworldly approaches on human anatomy and physical functions until then)
    ...probable its founder had something against it and celibacy/chastity were promoted as a natural behavior and virtue for the believers of tha faith

    mathew gospel 19 : 12 (my favorite quote)

    But he (Joshua) said unto them, All [men] cannot receive this saying, save [they] to whom it is given.
    For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from [their] mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive [it], let him receive [it].
    so theists face the truth revealed here, your imaginary deity cant be a true male if he is product of parthenogenesis like the "holy" scripts claim or the lord just didnt send his son on earth with all the equipement he needed to live like a normal guy! :laughing:

    and on the other hand, if he is not product of parthenogenesis then his mother, mariam, cant be virgin and joshua father isnt "god" but a human jew, a roman soldier (panther) as it was rumored or anything else but god...

    --------------

    and after googling out of curiosity i see that not only me have such thoughts but also but christian scientists as well made a similar approach (though their faith in religion doesnt let them see the truth which is somewhat different than what they argue)
    http://www.asa3.org/ASA/PSCF/1983/JASA9-83Kessel.html

    The following statements constitute a plausible biological scenario for Jesus during embryological development. (1) God's activity in which he accomplished the Virgin Conception and Virgin Birth is describable in terms of natural created processes. (2) Jesus' conception, gestation, and birth were parthenogenetic. (3) Nonsexual God was incarnated into the human race as a female. (4) Jesus was not only conceived as a female but remained chromosomally such throughout life. (5) Through the natural process of sex reversal Jesus became male, not instead of female but as well as female, assuming the phenotype of a man while retaining the chromosomal badge of a woman. (6) Thus Jesus was born and lived as the androgynous Christ.
    !!!

    From the viewpoint of a biological interpretation of the Virgin Conception- Birth story of the Scriptures, parthenogenesis (reproduction by a virgin) seems to have been the basic natural process that God used to accomplish the physical aspects of the Incarnation. Such virgin birth among animals has been known for centuries. In fact, "the Greeks supported belief in occasional parthenogenesis in human beings by pointing out how widespread among animals was this method of conception.
    Through the natural process of sex reversal Jesus became male, not instead of female but as well as female, assuming the phenotype of a man while retaining the chromosomal badge of a woman.
    !!!

    This explanation proposes that God's activity by which he accomplished the Virgin Conception and Virgin Birth is describable in terms of natural created processes. In this case the process was virgin birth which, translated into biological terminology, is parthenogenesis.71 If Mary's conception of Jesus was parthenogenetic, the Holy Spirit may have provided by some natural means the triggering environmental stimulus, e.g., simple cold shock that worked so well in animal studies. According to our biological interpretation of the Virgin Birth, Jesus' conception was parthenogenetic, and because human beings have the same X-Y kind of sex determination found in other mammals, with the female homozygous and possessing two X chromosomes, Jesus was conceived as a chromosomal female.
    In concluding this proposal, the following thoughts deserve emphasis: (1) The biological deduction from Scripture that Jesus was conceived as a female is based on the scientific knowledge that virgin-conceived offspring are chromosomal females. (2) Therefore the scriptural information that Jesus was born a male requires sex reversal to have occurred. (3) Having used the natural biological process of parthenogenesis to give Jesus chromosomal femaleness, God again used a natural biological mechanism to add the complementary sexual quality of maleness. This time God used the biological process of sex reversal which is fully supported by the known facts of genetics that have been described. (4) But in expanding the sexual identification of Jesus to include maleness, God did not strip away femaleness. Chromosomal femaleness was not involved in sex reversal; every cell continued to have its XX identification of womankind. (5) Thus the female embryo Jesus of the Virgin Conception and Incarnation became the two-sexed Infant of the Virgin Birth who was the androgynous Christ, bearing both the chromosomal identificaton of a woman and the phenotypic anatomy of a man. (6) If this proposal is correct, the inequity of the sexes taught under the Old Covenant has been transcended and no one can longer argue effectively against the ordination of women in the Church on the grounds that Christ was a man. Christ was also a woman.

    Do you expect serious answers from these people? The Virgin Birth is a 'miracle', meaning it took place AGAINST the laws of nature through divine intervention - magic, if you will. Scientific explanations based on parthogenesis are therefore meaningless, because God can do whatever he likes, including impregnating virgins with male children. Yahweh is a lot like Zeus in that way - he had a particular interest in spreading his seed among delightful human ladies, though Zeus did it a little more stylishly, as a swan/bull/a golden rain, etc. Zeus could have set up his own bestiality website if they'd had the technology back then.

    it seems like too many people are xperts in understanding the natural and biological procedures that lead to a parthenogenesis!

    thats not an argument, sorry

    "With God all things are possible." Nothing more needs to be said, really.
    boys dont forget that the one who brings up an argument is supposed to back his argument and prove it, so if u arent able to logically back your argument then avoid posting
    starting from a specific hyposthesis, that jesus is a product of parthenogenesis, then jesus can NOT be a normal male

    furthermore jesus according to xian theology, was as much a man as a god, therefore he was submitting to the biological laws that stand for any other human, thats why he died in the cross etc and faced what a human had to face
    according to those laws he cant be a real male if he is product of parthenogenesis
    ...at best he was a hermaphrodite or an androgyne!

    so if jesus was a human, he MUST be a girl or an abnormal "man"!

    erm i suggest u read again the thread, it argues that the parthenogenesis is NOT exactly against the laws of nature

    back off and accept what nature (the most closer thing to god) says :
    Its a bloody girl

    and btw why u react so much against jesus being "androgyne"?...is it really something so "bad" given that for a believer, jesus is still his god and savor?
    maybe that was the will of your lord and made him born with a parthenogenesis

    This was quite an amusing read actually

    So keep enjoying the crowds mate. You know what the crowd needs.

    Oh and to stay on topic, dont want any over-zealous TWC-moderator on my trail, Ill repeat that if you believe in God(if) you believe in miracles too and miracles dont need to abide with the laws of nature. They are actually called miracles because they ignore them.

    Right ho then. You start from the assumption first of all that there was indeed a Jesus Christ who existed (and from this you say that, if he did exist, he must have been female). What is the principle historical source for His life? The Bible. If you don't accept this as a historical source, then you can't argue about his birth at all and this discussion is pointless. So, since you (at least hypothetically) accept the Biblical account of his life, you must accept then that the Bible is also correct when it says: "Joseph, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son..." (Matthew 1:20-21) That's your proof. If you don't accept that, then you shouldn't be talking about Christian parthenogenesis at all.

    Yes, Christ was fully human and fully God. However, since God is omnipotent, I'm pretty sure that He can do what He likes with nature. Perhaps the Spirit implanted the Y Chromosome itself? Perhaps not, but quite frankly your argument seems breath-takingly tenuous.

    This is such a ridiculous statement that it doesn't even deserve to be answered.

    I suggest you read my response to your thread again. I said that God's divine intervention to make a male by virgin birth was against the laws of nature. Therefore it was not parthenogenesis, because Jesus was male.

    Not that the virgin birth even happened, of course, so the whole conversation is just nonsense anyway.

    I totally agree with Zenith Darksee (it rhymes anyway...)

    It is quite possible that Jesus had a Gender Identity Disorder (http://www.leaderu.com/jhs/rekers.html). So it hardly matters if Jesus was hermaphrodite or asexual. According to Christian faith he was the son of God , who, as pointed out
    can do what He likes with nature
    .

    ...that being at the same time time the best argument against Christians who despise homosexuality...

    Therefore while in the eyes of unbelievers Jesus can indeed be perceived as a disordered person or a natural abomination, this hardly interferes with the divine nature.

    Who said that divine="normal"?

    It is said that Jesus was infact androgynous, in the Gnostic tradition. But the meaning of this has nothing to do with X chromosomes.

    In truth, it got them very far. Farther than you could imagine. The more I study, the more I understand that they understood more than the official church. Wordplay intended.

    In the spiritual sense, Jesus was androgynous because he was the word of God, of the same substance of the Father, thus inherently, not woman, not man. This assertion, is not related with his biological gender, though the matter is quite complicated.

    If he was androgynous then he wasn't human, an inherent part of his characteristics as messiah.

    Hermaphrodites are androgynous and human. Furthermore, literalism is quite out of place in this context.
