If you ask about gender in death, people will just look at you weird.
There’s compounding evidence that a lot of religious canon was simply written by mankind as a kind of societal control.
The living should be kinder to one another.

Not Mormons.
After death, men get their own planet to rule over. Women… get to be their wives.

Societal control is the name of the game, friend.

This is why it makes more sense to believe in more gods.
More gods == more rational

Funnily enough, the Mormons would have the least trouble with this one. Their version of the greater sporitual world has a heavenly mother too. According to Knowing Better, she’s not super important, but the Mormons think it’s nice to know she’s out there.

Under Trinitarianism, God would be a they/them, because they’re literally several people.
According to the common understanding of the doctrine of virgin birth, Mary got impregnated through the Holy Spirit rather than The Father rawdogging her. This suggests that the Holy Spirit is a dick and thus probably male.
The Father is, according to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, not a man or a woman. That being said, neither Hebrew nor Aramaic nor Koine Greek have gender-neutral pronouns (except perhaps calling The Father “it” in Koine Greek, which would be hilarious but sadly would not be approved of by a killjoy like Paul).

Why should every part of God need a purpose? What does efficiency mean in the face of unlimited power (palpatine.jpeg), or simplicity in the face of omniscience? Why does God have a penis? Cause he wanted one I guess. They are nice for peeing too.
PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Peeing implies waste, which implies imperfection. If god were really God, his body would be 100% efficient and he wouldn’t consume anything he didn’t need.
Batman@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Maybe the pee is not waste, but spontaneously created to God’s will. " I want to pee, sure would be nice if I had a penis right now" - a diety that does not plan ahead, probably.
theacharnian@lemmy.ca 1 day ago
Nah, in its internal logic, Chalcedonean Christianity doesn’t have this problem. Jesus is defined as fully human and fully divine, and peeing is just part of being human.

Can god sling a dick so big even he can’t rub one out?
Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 1 day ago
I thought that’s where the biblically accurate angels come into play?
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Does that mean God has a neodick?
Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 2 days ago
Well the Holy Spirit 100% has a dick given he was the one that inseminated Mary.
Live_your_lives@lemmy.world 2 days ago
How do you know he didn’t use in vitro fertilization?
Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 2 days ago
In vitro means in an artificial environment. What would God make that could be considered artificial?

Capitalised pronouns ARE neopronouns. I use them, and I wrote an article on My blog about it: medium.com/…/introduction-to-capitalised-pronouns…

Couple of fun facts about this :
so God themself while referred to in English as a he refers to themselves as ’ I am ’ technically I think we should be using they them pronouns but English was traditionally a gendered language.
Jesus on the other hand 100% had a dick. Whether he kept that or not, post ascension that’s up for interpretation but Jesus was 100% biologically male.
Bookmeat@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Yes, and the church went nuts displaying the “Holy Relic” that was his supposed foreskin for many, many years, in many churches… At the same time. It got so out of control that people started to wonder why the church was so obsessed with Jesus’s dick. So the Pope finally got a clue, commanded a stop to the practice, and threatened to excommunicate anyone who spoke about it afterward. Ah, Christianity. Good times.
superkret@feddit.org 1 day ago
There was a theory for some time that Saturn’s rings are actually Jesus’ ascended foreskin.

Jesus on the other hand 100% had a dick.
Oh did they find his body?
olosta@lemmy.world 2 days ago
He is circumcised according to Luke gospel, so the dick biblically accurate.

We are discussing biological sex as in the parts we are not discussing gender.
andros_rex@lemmy.world 1 day ago
My personal head canon is that Jesus was a transgender man (no Y chromosome). The “this is my Son, in whom I am well pleased” marks when God finally accepts his Son’s gender identity, and lets him start his minister (and hooks him up with HRT).
He could still be intersex AFAB. PCOS/CAH are both extremely common and you can end up with a clitoris that looks pretty close to a peen0r. Admittedly, that doesn’t make the circumscision part that much better - but well realistic, it’s gotta have happened at some point.
exu@feditown.com 1 day ago
God created both men and women in his image, so he must have biological gender traits from both.

Intersex God!!! That implies intersex people are divine! Now if only Christians would stop trying to “fix” God’s most divine creations…
