Scientists report virgin birth


"As is typical with scientists, we doubted our own results and so we did it again, and then a third time using a new technique with new genetic approaches. This confirmed there was no DNA of any male," said Prodohl

more....
 
It's the sharks Messiah!!! :D They've been waiting for this for so long now!!


On a serious note, if they have shown it is possible for a shark to have a virgin birth... Would this be the same for the human being a 100% different type of animal? If yes, then also wouldn't this go to show, that maybe infact jesus wasn't some divine blessing.... He was just born from a freak situation..... ?

-edit-

amended typos... It's almost 00:00 hours..... I am tired.

nope
 
I've always had a problem with the virgin birth idea...

I knew some insects could do it, but not birds and sharks, too...

interesting...

I still don't believe Jesus was born that way, though... It makes Mary a freak, and I'm not having anyone say Our Lady was a freak!

I was of the opinion that virgin in her case meant- innocent, pure, virginial, not- never got jiggy with Joseph...

so, unless she was a shark underneath that cerulean blue tunic, and unless she was a hermaphrodite and self impregnated herself, she was no virgin!

(sorry Mary)

You call a holy situation freaky? Never forget he was 100 percent God and man is more than an animal.
 
hmmmm, lol, and I guess the same question could be turned around. What proves that animals don't have souls? Interestingly the early christians identified the soul as the psyche. Ours obvioulsy more complex then the animal kingdom, creatures like dolphins and humpback whales however with their brilliant communication systems and gorillas etc make me think twice, and maybe three times : O )
 
Wouldn't this type of asexual virgin birth be a duplicate, a clone of the mother hence female?

I see that as a distinction between that and Jesus, of course I don't have the scientific knowledge to know if that is correct or not...

Animal souls notwithstanding, there is free will.
