What is Ben Shapiro trying to say with that verse? That the Abrahamic God is not gender conforming since Genesis says that both Male and Female are images of God? So God is trans?
so if he “created them male AND female”, then perhaps only transgender people are truly made in God’s image
Guys! Look at this translation of a translation of a translation that was written by people like me that supports my argument!!
What do these people think they’re proving by quoting “the” Bible? There are no surviving original texts, and they sure as fuck weren’t written in English. The guys who translated it weren’t without their own agendas, either.
To be fair most modern publications of the bible are actually quite direct from the sauce, the NSRVUE in particular is a truly ecumenical source intended to provide an academic translation from the recent discoveries of the oldest sources currently available, including finds like the dead sea scrolls.

That’s not in the original canon, Jesus is the son of Joseph, being the son of God was an insertion to make the new religion more understandable to the hellenic world in which powerful mortals were almost always the product of a god making a child with a mortal.
Prior to that Jesus as God the Son was meant more that he was God incarnate as the child of Mary and Joseph, not as the literal child of God the Father since they’re the same entity, you can’t father yourself.
Really the trinity would probably be better set up as “God the Heavenly, God the Incarnate, and God the All Observant.”
Far better describes what each actually does, one is the creator who reigns in heaven, one is the liberator from sins tied to your very bloodline via the liberation from original sin, and one is the all seeing presence who judges your moral character upon your death.
Notice they’re not talking about evolution anymore, because they’ve handily lost that battle. The argument never changes, they just shift the context so they can keep making it
