    If the story is to be believed, Jesus was conceived via parthenogenesis (aka immaculate conception aka unfertilized egg). This means Jesus had only X chromosomes and yet presented as male. Jesus was definitely somewhere on the line of intersex, transgender, non-binary, et. al.

      Yeah, no way an omnipotent God could do anything about the lack of Y chromosomes. He can create a new life in the womb of a virgin woman, but put a Y in the kid? Nope, His hands are tied, apparently.

      Come on, lol.

        My wife is a geneticist and we discovered she has an inactive y chromosome, so she is xxy, but a woman, and had babies.

        All she needed was one gene SRY and she would be an odd looking male and likely infertile

        I think they mean if the story that it was a virgin birth is real, not the story of God, because that for sure isn’t. Parthenogenesis is a real thing, though very rare in humans. It allows for virgin births. If the story is to believed that it was a virgin birth, then this is what it was. I don’t believe that story, but it is theoretically possible. I think it’s much more likely she slept with someone else and got pregnant. It wouldn’t be the first or last time a woman did that and said she was still a virgin, and it was a miracle.

          Imagine working so hard to keep up a lie that you accidentally create a religion with billions of followers and people still telling your lie tale 2000 years later.
