God created the Universe and the Earth. God created Eve. Eve was unhappy, because she was lonely. God told Eve, “I will create a companion for you, a man. He is far from perfect. Man is very egotistical, lazy, and even slovenly in his personal grooming. However, Man has a strong back and will be helpful in carrying burdens.
Eve was not thrilled about this. God remonstrated with her, telling her, “It’s better than a sharp stick in the eye.” God then told Eve, “I will let you have Man, but you must allow him to believe I created him first.”
This is even funnier, when you consider basic embryology: All fetus start out female, without the action of testosterone and anti-Mullerian hormone, XY fetuses will turn out female. Female is the default development.
"Female is the default development."
Are you implying that males are more highly developed?
“I will create a companion for you, a man.
God's word refutes this notion.
>> Female is the default development.
You go girl !
oh, I forget to mention something...
God's a man.
This is a really bad basic biology lesson to bring up in a biker bar.
Trust me.
Sure, default is Eve's because she listened to the serpent....
I don't get it. There seems to be a punchline missing.
A man sized man? If he's bigger does he still have a thingee? Planet sized or something like that? Does he ever use it?
By definition how can XY be female? That does not make any sense.
Well, the X chromosome is female, is it not? So males are half female, or else, as is averred, modified females. The Y chromosome can be seen as an extreme modification of the X chromosome. As was once remarked by a nephew of mine to his father, on the occasion of a shared shower, "We're fancy 'cuz we have peanuts."
And on the 11th day, after making sure there were no more signs of PMS, God asked Eve what she would like to change about herself - if anything.
Eve looked down at her Three breasts and asked the middle one be removed. And God made it so and it was good.
Standing with the third breast in her hand Eve said to God, "What will we do with this useless Boob?"
And God created man. Boom Boom.
Why is God a man? Why would God have to have human features? For example what would be the point of God having an appendix or any other human manifestations?
This would mean that men are a "higher development." Nonetheless, woman is God's most glorious creation.
"Well, the X chromosome is female, is it not?"
Only in some politicized notion of genetics is the X chromosome exclusively female. Males have the Y chromosome, so the X MUST be female, regardless of the fact that males have one as well, right? Wrong. The X chromosome is not specific to gender, so it would be best described as human. Females have genetic redundancy, which leads to certain benefits, as well as drawbacks, as far as health, longevity and other factors. Males do not have this genetic redundancy, which leads to certain benefits and drawbacks, as far as health, longevity and other factors. An XY fetus that does not develop male sexual characteristics is not female, it is a male with a birth defect.
That means you, Nancy Pelosi. ;)
"By definition how can XY be female? That does not make any sense."
Examples:
1. Cases of gonadal agenesis (gonads fail to develop). There will be no testosterone or anti-Mullerian hormone. The fetus will develop a female phenotype, complete with vagina uterus, labia minora and labia majora, and a clitoris. The child is raised as a girl, and the condition is discovered by a failure to begin menstruation.
2. Androgen insensitivity syndrome (inability of the body to respond to androgens. The gonads do produce testosterone, but it does not affect the body. However, the anti-Mullerian hormones do act on the body. The result is a outward female phenotype, with vagina, labia and clitoris. However, the internal organs are more male. These girls develop breasts, and the condition is discovered because of a failure to begin menstruation.
>> God's a man.
At what point between the topic and my post did this thread detour from absurdity?
You made a statement about God being a man. How do you know? What is absurd about that question?
