Is God a Woman?

[Draka]

No I wasn't.

You'd have to be to be using the argument of Jesus needing a "full complement of genetic material". Those were your words Sandy.

Not if it's "magic holy genetic material."

 

[Willamena]

No I wasn't.

"Bloodine", "DNA", "conception"... these things are pretty hard to take figuratively. Can you explain the metaphor, then?

Edit: "mechanics"...

Mary was impregnated by God after she was betrothed but before the marriage ceromony was performed. Joseph wished to "put her away" thinking that Mary had cheated on him. God intervened on Mary's behalf and Joseph married her. Jesus was born after the marriage ceremony.

So if I get my neighbor pregnant, the baby won't be born out of wedlock because the mother is married to my cousin?

No I don't.

That, depends, what does your neighbor look like?

As I said before, I'll leave the mechanics of it to your lurid imagination.

Look, if you have no answer for it all then just admit it would you? You were the one using biology when it suited you, but then dismissing it when it didn't. Try to be consistent at the very least. Currently you are flying the flag of hypocrisy over your head. Back up your stance or admit you are wrong. Simple as that.

I suspect that it is much more accurate to say you leave the mechanics out because it does not work if you put the mechanics in.

 

[Draka]

No I don't.

Then WHERE did the other half of Jesus' "full genetic complement" come from Sandy???

I suspect his answer will be:

The Holy Spirit

The Bible offers no explaination as to how the mechanics of the conception happened. Yet the Bible is clear that Mary was a virgin when it happened, that it wasn't Joseph, that it was the Holy Spirit and that Jesus was the only begotten of the Father.

Now, if Jesus came from the line of Adam then He would have been under the curse of death that Adam passed onto all men, ergo by being God's son He was not under the curse and was able to be offered as the perfect sacrifice for the sin of mankind.

I've already answered it. you wish to ignore it.

As I have said before, I leave it out because there is no mention of the mechanics of it in Scripture.

"God did it"
The ultimate safety net

That is what the Bible says.

See, I told ya, Draka. Magic holy DNA! I don't think they had turkey basters back then.

 

[Willamena]

The trouble is you're invoking non-explanation rather than explanation.

 

[Draka]

Do you didn't. If you did, then point me to the post where you did.

You say the holy ghost did it. Well, then, is the holy ghost god's magic penis or something? You did say the holy ghost "came upon her" right?

 

[Draka]

Who needs a turkey baster when you have god's magic penis and his holy seed?
