oh wow that's actually on the level of "four balls on a cliff" as an explanation only those are the wrong balls and there's rape and why don't we tear down the patriarchy yet?

Fell Fire posted:"Pregnancy has occurred" is probably a good sign of someone not being a virgin, but other than that . . . Look, there are a lot of people who would without hesitation throw down over virgin birth not only being possible, but also having definitely already happened at least once. And if it happened once, it could happen again e: I had a brief fear of this in middle school actually LITERALLY A BIRD has a new favorite as of 01:42 on Mar 31, 2024 |

I think that is possible for like, frogs, but in humans it just gives you tumours. E: asexual reproduction that is not birthing the antichrist, although perhaps frog antichrist might have happened along with the frog rapture I wouldn't know.

I found what appears to be a close plagiarism of the above book online and its horrifying. It's focused around India though and various things about marriage etc there. Identical descriptions of "virginity" and such. It does mention how if you get semen on a vulva they can technically get pregnant.

I got curious about parthogenesis in mammals once and found a study suggesting it happens more than we think, but doesn't prodcue viable embyros so they just die at ridiculously early stage (like only a few cells). I guess that's related to the teratoma formation you mention? If you think about it, mammals are weird for not being able to do it, seeing as it's been seen in birds, fish, reptiles and amphibians.

venus de lmao posted:the immaculate conception means Mary was born without original sin, so This is one of my biggest Catholic theology pet peeves. Mary was immaculately conceived so that she could be born without original sin, so that Jesus could later be born without original sin. But if god can just loving wave his hand and prevent original sin from infecting a fetus, then why not just make Jesus immaculately conceived?? What's the point of the extra step???? This is the PYF bad theological arguments thread, right?

Jesus had to gestate within Mary because she had an absolutely boss immune system and God wanted Jesus to inherit those antibodies. Jesus wasn't immune to the diseases he treated, his body was just that good at dealing with invaders.

She wasn't - immaculate conception doesn't mean the person giving birth was a virgin, it actually means that the person CONCIEVED had no original sin. Mary was immaculate, Jesus was virgin birth, they were two separate miracles.

It's because Catholics revere Mary and the church had to come up with a reason for her not to be a disgusting cesspit of sin like they call every other women

Mary was immaculate, Jesus was virgin birth, they were two separate miracles. Right, "conception" specifically means "fuckin'," so the fuckin' that produced Mary had to be clean from original sin (immaculate) or Jesus would have been magicked into a tainted, sinful uterus like the rest of us. But the process of Jesus getting in there wasn't a conception.

'immaculate' doesn't mean 'without sex'. Sex is not a sin within marriage. In Church doctrine she was conceived without original sin. I honestly am not sure why it seems kinda odd, like it would mean more if she willingly went along with this whole virgin birth plan if she were just a normal sinful girl trying to be better, but don't look for nuance I guess

loving within marriage is not sin within most Abrahamic faiths. So Mary's married parents loving is not a problem. They would have to do, like, a really good sacrifice at the temple to get all the sin off their card, then immediately go home and start loving before they sinned again and ruined it.

The notion of the immaculate conception is almost as old as Christianity itself so it's got about 2000 years of baggage attached to it. I wouldn't try too hard to unpack it without being prepared to spend some time in medieval theology.

I've got a Cultural Background study bible that is good if you're the sort of nerd who occasionally goes 'wait, what *did* mourning rituals look like in Egypt at the time?', it's a huge book that is about 80% explanations of cultural context for stuff we were expected, as kids, to just take on without any explanation at all.

Seems like a lot of hassle could have been avoided if God had used the immaculate conception technique on every baby, but I can see how that would get boring after a while.

You guys keep talking about spontaneous self-impregnation like it's never happened. https://www.merrylinmuseum.com/immaculate-conception-of-maria-rosenthal/ It's art not history but horrifyingly well presented.

It's this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0310452686 ISBN 978-0310452683 I really like it. I think there exists an NIV too but this is an NRSV translation which I prefer. The reviews say the Kindle version is good but I find I can't concentrate on heavier reading without a physical book and the physical book of this is very nice indeed. Sorry for the derail! I am nerding out about bible.
