What if you cloned Jesus

[Zelig]

Are Identical twins the same people?

Of course.

If we accept that life begins at conception, then yes, they are.

What if you've got a split brain and one half of your brain believes in Jesus and the other half doesn't, and you die in that state

That might be a great way to troll God

Kidding, of course.

If you cloned Jesus 200 times over you could build a pretty stable & unique boat out of the clones.

No. Try asking identical twins. I'm willing to bet they'd say they are different people, but close to each other.

lol. Clever way of getting around the fact that all the Jesus scenes (much like the entire friggen movie) is rife with infractable language.

Hang on. Have you investigated the possibilities of Jesus powered Ascension rocketry?

Or better, clone Muhammad. Raise the child in the West in a spirit of liberalism and civilized values, and then present him to the Muslim world. Since he's an embodiment of the Prophet, they should raise him to the position of Caliph and follow his lead in religious matters.

That would save the world a lot of headache.

Poor Momo would probably get crucified there...

How many chromosomes did Jesus have? If you clone him, would the clone have the same number?

How could Jesus have been a male if he was immaculately concepted from a female? Females only have 2 X chromosomes... so perhaps Jesus was actually a woman?

If you clone Jesus would you likewise have to incubate him in a teenage semitic virgin? Can you even find those anymore??

I can't believe you went there.
Thanks for the laugh

Yeah, this. He'd make the Great Depression look like the happy-prosperous-no-inflation-yay! time.

Any clone is going to be extremely different from the original unless you could somehow magically make their life experiences exactly the same. The genetic material someone has is pretty irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

 

[Crezth]

A clone would not have the original's life experiences, so this would not be the individual we think of as the New Testament Jesus.

Is it Jesus' life experiences that make him the Christ?

Prophet is an acquired status, not an inherited one. Islamic doctrine stresses pretty hard that before the angel Gabriel appeared to him, Muhammad was just some guy- a particularly righteous guy, no doubt, but still at the end of the day basically a nobody- so unless you can couch our winged pal down from the heavens to confer a similar station on Muhammad 2.0, it's not going to get you very far.

Yes, all the 1 billion+ Muslims would come to Europe and raise unemployment here.

Ah, the tragic ironies of an ex-Soviet Blocer moaning about immigrants taking his job.

He's not worried about that so much. The immigrants taking his unemployment is the usual moan.
