Food for thought...

Posed by my friend in a recent email:

What do you think Jesus' DNA looked like? Did it have part of Mary's in it? Joseph's? Was it totally unique?

Kinda makes you think about the virgin birth...and what it means to be human and divine...

In the big picture, it's a matter that doesn't really have a lot of significance for my personal faith, though it does seem to echo the homousia/homoiusia debates of the Ecumenical councils. But it's a fun thought to play with. Thoughts, anyone?
