virgins meant virgins back then switch. The egyptians ancient greeks all were obsessed with virgin priestess’… MAny priests had to abstain from sex for a certain time before performing a certain ritual. The oracle at delphi had to be a virgin her whole life. In ancient times many civilizations had this understanding that virgins or virginity was someone good and holy.

Delphi is where the meaning of “her own woman” comes from. The women remained unmarried, thus “virgins”, but they did engage in intercourse.
-
No one in this thread has been using the term “Immaculate Conception” correctly (at least according to the official Catholic doctrine) …
The term Immaculate Conception refers to the conception of MARY, not of Jesus. It states that Mary was born without original sin. It was made into an official Catholic dogma on December 8, 1854. Immaculate Conception has nothing to do with the birth of Jesus!

switch, so so wrong. I’m a history major and they teach that yes they are virgins because of no sex. Enough of the liberalism trying to demote what virginity is. Its not what you want it to be. Keep trying for all i care. Delphi, no sex, had to be clean, sex made one not pure enough. Everyone had their reasons for virgins, and i dont mean their strong women who act independently, i mean women who abstain from sex, cause everyone knew the chics got a hymen and they were mystified by it.

are you sure avin? second are you catholic.

Yea, Avin’s right. In the CATHOLIC version of the faith Mary was the only person after Adam and Eve to be born without original sin. Thus she was a “virgin” to sin. Of course, the Bible clearly states that no human is free from sin, all have sinned and all are sinners. So I really don’t see the whole point to that line of reasoning.
I, and many MANY of the world’s religious sects, believe that Jesus was created by the egg of woman and the seed of God. Thus, he was God incarnate or God in the Flesh.
-
Yes, I am sure. Consider the Catholic Encyclopedia on the subject. No, I am not Catholic. I lived next door to a Catholic school called Immaculate Conception however… it was quite amusing that there was a sign next to their dumpsters that boldly proclaimed:
“Dumpsters are for Immaculate Conception only.”

The explain Bachanalian Virgin Priestesses…
Or Pan’s Virgin Priestesses…
Total oxymoron under the no intercourse definition. Makes total sense under the “her own woman” definition.
And refresh my memory (been a long time since my Catechism classes), which ONE of the twelve disciples is it that has such a big hang up about sex in general? And virtually all of the Puritanic style view of sex comes from his Gospel…

I keep hearing Sam Kinison doing his bit about Joseph every time I read this thread…
“… and he better be the ONLY son of God!”
Total heresy from a former Baptist minister. Gotta love it :-)

Here is a link for that Kinison skit…

If I am not mistaken it is “Mother Mary’s Mystery Date” :-)

a disciple hung up on sex, i’m not sure.
-
I think what Switch is trying to say is that Paul was gay. Or was another disciple?
Either way, a guy with 12 “disciples” leaves me with some suspicion. Oh, that’s right - women weren’t smart enough to teach.
-
insinuating that jesus and pals were a 13 man orgy troupe?

-
it would be funny, i have a sense of humor, who could do that right, mel brooks?
-
Him (I love Mel Brooks), although he’d have to find someway to get Hitler in there, or possibly Kids in the Hall, with Scott Thompson presiding as Jesus. He’d also play Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene.
