Here are two sources I found:

No, that’s, different, you see!
She wasn’t a surrogate, she was just raped by a ghost who’s also her son, which is of course totally fine and wholesome!
Well if we assume God is female, then Jesus’ mom would’ve been a surrogate, technically, I think.
Depends whether the holy ghost has a penis that ejaculates, really.
…is not something I ever thought I’d write 😆
I mean they might, but if they also have egg cells…
Surrogacy is when a uterus grows a kid that wasn’t by their own egg.
Technically, that’s called gestational surrogacy. Traditional surrogacy uses the surrogate’s egg and the intended father’s (or donor’s) sperm.
Huh. True enough. Point well made.
I had no idea that existed. I thought surrogacy was donor sperm + donor egg in third party womb.
By “traditional”, I think they mean “before we had the ability to facilitate gestational surrogacy”
Sort of like half-adoption, if you think of it like that. So for people who lived pre 20th century…
Fair.
Wasn’t there a TNG episode kinda-sorta like that?
In Catholicism the Holy Ghost is feminine. Though that may be folk Catholicism.
She wasn’t raped; see Luke 1:38.
“She’s not gonna SAY no… because of the implication”
-God explaining the plan to the angel
Yeah she was; see Leia 4:20
It’s not like she could just not consent to a being that she was taught to worship
Given the age difference it’s pretty much pedophilia.

The mythology of Christianity notwithstanding, people really get hung up on the alleged circumstances of his birth while paying precious little attention to the sermons and practices he engaged in during his life.
Would that everyone believed the Loaves and Fishes story as influential as the How Mary Got Preggers tale.
Well personally I’m aware that literally none of it happened, so might as well have some fun about the most insane parts rather than a simple dupe hack 😉

Abundant evidence of Messiah figures running around the Levant during the reign of Emperor Tiberius. Whether “Jesus” was one guy or a composite, you’re stretching skepticism to assert the Sermon on the Mount as an event that didn’t happened.
There is evidence of New York existing and there is evidence of spiders existing. Does that mean I am stretching my skepticism when I say I am convinced that Spiderman does not exist?
I can go to Times Square right now and find half a dozen guys dressed in Spiderman costumes running around. And I can produce a litany of live action video that is significantly more convincing than any artifacts you could produce to prove the existence of Caeser Augustus or Abraham Lincoln or Winston Churchill. Hell, I can even get you video of a guy in a Spiderman costume who is climbing a high rise in Los Angeles right here
If a video of a guy climbing a building in a Spiderman costume was paired with a handful of comic books, and this was discovered in a sealed vault in the year 4024 AD, what kind of conversation would we be having?
Do you have a video of Jesus?
Finding a 6000 year old video of Spiderman would not change the discussion at all (besides questions about modern technology that supposedly is thousands of years old). We do have modern movies that show a Spiderman. Just like those, a video tape of a 6000 year old human spider is not proof that human-spider hybrids exist. It just proves that there are people who pretend to be a Spiderman.
So, stories about Jesus performing miracles can (maybe) be proof of people having existed who claimed or were said to be a Jesus. But they don’t prove that miracles are a thing.

The Sermon on the Mount only becomes a miracle when you add in fish magic. Before that point, it’s just a story about a guy who gives a speech and covers the tab for lunch.
It’s fanfiction about a cult leader at best.
Why do we care what the leader of a pedophile death cult thinks?
Because this particular death cult has billions of members.
he affects the retards, the retards are a problem
he affects the retards, the retards are a problem
Ya this is key right here. I feel like if we want to make progress and not just bitch about our problems, we need to figure out how to break the link between grifter cult leaders and their idiot armies, whether that’s in the church or MAGA or anywhere else.
All those funny dumb people full of hate we laugh at with Jordan Klepper cannot be turned into smart nice people. We need to put their focus back on ancient aliens and who shot JFK to get them out of the way.
In the US, Evangelical Christian’s did not give a shit about abortion until about the 70s, when they realized they could form a coalition with Catholics to gain political power on that wedge issue. Lots of people care about what the Pope thinks, so unfortunately the rest of us have to somewhat too.
Because he influences a lot of other pedophiles, presumably.
The issue of surrogacy, particularly in a country like the United States, which denies people public health care and forces pregnant women to assume an enormous amount of medical risk (particularly in abortion-illegal states), is a hot one from a socio-economic perspective.
Turning desperate young women into indentured servants is bad aktuly. And it shouldn’t take a guy in a big gold hat to make that clear.
Hypocrisy?
Why would Mary care what the Pope has to say? She’s Jewish.
To think that an entire Abrahamic religion was born from a woman’s need to convince her husband that she hadn’t slept with another man hence she came up with the whole “God did it” and raised her son to believe it.
To quote Captain Holt:
“That is amazingly funny.”Hot Damn!
Absolute perfection.
I mean, after thousands of years of Christianity, it’s a little weird that people get so shocked when they behave like assholes.
Yah, …like she had a choice.
Just for the record, there are a surprising number of rich people who are paying other people to have children for them. It’s not for medical reasons, but for cosmetics and convenience. It actually is pretty weird imo.
i mean you don’t use their genes…
Yes, I know how surrogacy works…
that’s funny, we all call the Pope a grave violation of human dignity…
pregancies
The comic correctly infers that religion is only as valid as the person chooses, thereby confirming its manmade origin
So people around here are OK with human trafficking? Because surrogacy is basically that, with extra steps.
What would those extra steps be?
Show your work.
Beg your pardon?
