NEWS: Jesus' Rebirth...Kinda?

CULTURE: Jesus' Rebirth...Kinda?

Well, for all of those people waiting on Jesus' return to the world, their expectations could be...sort of right.

Flora is scheduled to give virgin birth to eight babies on Christmas Day this year. Who's Flora? Well, she just so happens to be a komodo dragon living in England's Chester Zoo. But there's a catch—in Flora's lifetime, she has never even been introduced to a male of the species, and therefor fertilized all of the eggs on her own. Other species have been known to do this, but this is only the second case in a komodo dragon (the first was mistaken as stored sperm from earlier encounters with males).

Kevin Buley of the Chester Zoo explained how, one day, komodo dragons maybe be socializing with the likes of inbred dregs everywhere:

That would either lead to one hardcore case of inbreeding, or a species adept enough to repopulate itself anywhere it damn well chooses.

bet the religious right never saw that one coming...

Whiptail lizards do this too. But I'm %100 willing to join a cult, following the teachings of 8 reptillian massiahs.

Jeff Goldblum talked about this idea in JP.

Jeff Goldblum is a prophet.

It was actually in the oldest versions of the gospel, but mistranslation led to the image of Jesus as "white dude with long hair and a beard" instead of "komodo dragon dude with long tail who fucked his mom."

my iguana did that once. they put it in the record books. creepy shit.

so apparently jesus was reborn in my basement to an angry iguana who likes to bite.

id rather not.

FREEMASONRY!

Mary must have eaten a lot of sperm.....

Free Mick Jagger!

I might go Xtian if Jesus was a Komodo Dragon... I mean, that'd be pretty cool is your savior was a Komodo.

I went to Chester Zoo back in May and remember seeing them...!

Life always finds a way!

SHIT, Now we are going to have to crucify a fucking lizzard? LOL

I for one welcome our new Komodo Dragon Overlords.....sounds like a band name.

death metal?

They play mostly Boy George covers.

When I think of the "almost rebirth of Jesus," I think of this:

So, scientifically, Mary was a man and a woman?

No, Mary was a whore. Virgin birth my ass!


And here comes the hate mail. lol

that's one of my favorites, because it consistently trumps itself throughout the episode with over-the-top moments that are hilarious (and one sad)

I'd me more worried about the Wrath of God, myself.

God is a lie.
