A FEMINIST theologian has stoked controversy by publishing a paper arguing that Jesus might have been a hermaphrodite. Dr Susannah Cornwall claimed that it is âsimply a best guessâ that Jesus was male. Her comments, which are bound to provoke fury in some quarters, were published in response to the ongoing debate about women bishops in the Church of England. Dr Cornwall, of Manchester Universityâs Lincoln Theological Institute, describes herself on her blog as specialising in: âResearch and writing in feminist theology, sexuality, gender, embodiment, ethics and other fun things like that.â In her paper âIntersex & Ontology, A Response to The Church, Women Bishops and Provisionâ, she argues that it is not possible to know âwith any certaintyâ that Jesus did not suffer from an intersex condition, with both male and female organs. In an extraordinary paper she says: âIt is not possible to assert with any degree of certainty that Jesus was male as we now define maleness. âThere is no way of knowing for sure that Jesus did not have one of the intersex conditions which would give him a body which appeared externally to be unremarkably male, but which might nonetheless have had some âhiddenâ female physical features.â Dr Cornwall argues that the fact that Jesus is not recorded to have had children made his gender status âeven more uncertainâ. She continues: âWe cannot know for sure that Jesus was male â since we do not have a body to examine and analyse â it can only be that Jesusâ masculine gender role, rather than his male sex, is having to bear the weight of all this authority.â

Really She got out the kitchen long enough to type this? Ok Jesus was an amphibian He could breath under water instead of walking on it There is no evidence to say otherwise Pulitzer baby
I say he was made of candle wax and used to ride a Great Dane whilst singing show-tunes. Prove me wrong.
If you look at the pictures of him on the cross he probably had quite a small cock as it wasn't showng through that tiny loin cloth. So he definitely wasn't black.
