Take a moment and look at it an entirely different way . . .

    A transcendant being resides as a glob of cellular matter in a woman's body for nine months stitching together a human without the DNA of a male human being.

    The Being is squeezed out of the vaginal canal of his host/mother and has to poop and piss on himself for a couple of years. What is wrong with this picture?

    The consciousness of the fetus would be what, then?

    Was it a human consciousness or a divine Being's?

    The infant God wallowing in fecal matter was thinking what?

    How does this fit into YOUR theology?

    Not only is it silly; it is just plain crude and bizarre!

    Adam had no mother.

    Adam wasn't birthed.

    Adam wasn't coddled and breast fed.

    Why does the 2nd Adam get all the amenities of humanity and the 1st Adam is suddenly full-blown without an emotional/family core?

    This is primitive thinking! Don't you understand this?

    The minds which made up these myths were not in the least thinking through the implications in the Axial age.

    The essence of the creature called Jesus is described by the medical word

    Chimera: Essentially, in a chimera, each cell is from either of the parent species, whereas in a hybrid and hybridoma, each cell is derived from both parent species. "Chimera" is a broad term and is often applied to many different mechanisms of the mixing of cells from two different species.

    You bring this up to a Xtian fundie or JW and they would have no idea what you just explained. Great points Terry!

    the 1st Adam is suddenly full-blown without an emotional/family core?

    So the 1st Adam did not miss a his family? I asked this question to my dad when I was a child and he said his father was Jehovah.

    But I asked myself, He had a dad who he could not see and who would set up him to fail? makes no sense

    Jehovah is # ONE DAD!

    The way it was always explained to me was that Jesus was, essentially, a perfect human for the first 30 years of his life. Then, after baptism, when he went and fasted for 40 days, he sort of regained his memories of being in heaven and what not. Whether this is actually an accurate interpretation of scripture, I don't know, and I don't care because it's clearly all BS anyway.

    Something I have often wondered about....is...where was I before I was made...where did I come from. Yes I know my dad and mum made me...physically...but where did my independent feeling thinking person come from....odd...

    " I asked this question to my dad when I was a child and he said his father was Jehovah."

    Last week's Watchtower study dealt with, among other things, the pitfal of distant parenting. "You can't hug your child over the internet", it was said. Now if Jehovah was Adam's father and Jehovah is an invisible, intangible spirit living in heaven, then wasn't Jehovah similarly a distant parent? Jehovah could not hug Adam or be there for him the way a human parent is supposed to. Could this have played a part in Adam not cultivating a close enough relationship with Jehovah to put obedience to him above pleasing his wife? If so, then isn't Jehovah, due to his distant parenting, responsible for Adam's poor choice?

    Perhaps the 'lord's prayer' should begin: our absent father jehovah........

    If Jesus was birthed by god placing his seed through his holy spirit and genetic DNA into Mary,

    then god would have to have his own DNA profile.

    ...... interesting

    If god didn't create Eve until he saw Adam alone and in need of companionship, why did he

    create Adam firstly as a male ?

    .

    If god had a son before he sent him to earth to save humanity, who was Jesus's mother ?

    If Jesus was god (Trinity) and had no active memory and had to wait until he was 30 to remember stuff no wonder the universe got so screwed up!

    So according to the JW teaching the first thirty years Jesus was perfect? No one noticed he never took a dump or a pee? Or he was god and because he was in a human body he had to take a dump and a pee every day? So there's god sitting in what passed for an outhouse grunting one out.

    And they fought a 100 year war over this issue?
