Could the Messiah be Intersex?

Posted in Ideas & Opinions by Administrator on the March 17th, 2011


 

In the Old Testament of the Bible, when God creates human beings, God is quoted as referring to itself in the first person plural (“our” and “us”). According to the 2007 New Living Translation, (http://www.newlivingtranslation.com/) Genesis 1:26 instructs that “Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the earth, and the small animals that scurry along the ground.” Immediately following in Genesis 1:27, the Bible says, “So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.”

There’s only one way to read that: god is a hermaphrodite or as the more modern terminology dictates, god is Intersex.

Flora Tristan

It is usually assumed by Western religions that the so-called Messiah (Hebrew: Moshiach) has been or will be male, depending on whether the given religious sect accepts Jesus as a Messiah that already came and who will return, or as Jews believe, is yet to come. There was a movement amongst the so-called “utopian socialists,” Francois Marie Charles Fourier and Henri de Saint Simon to promote the idea that socialism (the term was coined by Saint Simon) would be brought about as a new world order by a female Messiah. Many followers of Flore-Celestine -Therèse-Henriette Tristan-Moscoso (known historically as Flora Tristan) came to believe that she was the woman Messiah predicted by Saint Simon and Fourier prior to her untimely death.

So, if god is as perfect as his supporters believe, then shouldn’t a Messiah appointed and anointed by god to carry out such important work on Earth be as close to god-like as possible. If so, doesn’t it follow that the Messiah will be born Intersex?
