Jesus becomes
female
Historically,
the Jesus story forms at a time of vast global swarm and diverse
cultures meshing. Scholars accept that there were many “Jesus” stories,
many Jewish messiahs, many Crucified
Ones during this “New Testament” period.
The special terror which Jesus adds to the Genesis Rib
story is that he is more than just St. Paul’s “Second
Adam.” For
most Christian scholars and preachers the Second Adam theme has become
a staple
interpretive device of Warrior’s Quest theology. We see that
Jesus is more than a Second Adam in that he does not just replace or supersede
Adam,
rather,
he interiorizes him.
Jesus’ crucifixion is a displacement tale
of intimacy.
Again, the substitutionary
dynamic of the Crucifixion event is much like that of
the Rib.
On the cross, Jesus becomes female.
What is critical to grasp is that, for the Warrior Quester, blood is the
creative force,
which
he knows, mythically and intuitively, is “of
Her. ” He is not ignorant of the
moon-flow. Rather, he wants to bring this awareness to the fore and
then steal it.
Where Genesis is somewhat
indirect, the Gospels are quite direct.
They state that
only Jesus’ blood is holy, and only it is the font of spiritual life.
Though scholars have argued for drawing great meaning
from the fact that some women held administrative
and leadership offices during Gospel
times and for some years thereafter, the terrible fact
is that Jesus as Christ sucks the life out of women
and the feminine. Neither Jesus of Nazareth nor Jesus as Christ
forwards the feminine as a spiritual source, truth or way.
