At least two errors.

1. female gender, not sex.

2. absence of Y chromosome because female ovum fertilized by a ghost, therefore no Y chromosome, unless the ghost possessed male gender??

Absence of a Y chromosome (Turner's syndrome) does NOT translate into female gender.

The person looks like a female, but possesses neither uterus nor ovaries.

Could a twelve year old female appearing child enter the Temple to discuss religion with the male rabbi's in attendance, as Jesus is reported to have done?

If no Y chromosome, how could Jesus be regarded as the "seed" of David?

Jesus is regarded as the seed of David because he was "found" in the LXX. If he was "found" in Homer, perhaps he could have been referred to as the seed of Agamemnon.

Didn't you ever read Paul????

Avi, he is mentioned all over the place. Don't let the fact that the Jews completely missed it throw you, as they failed Greek.

God had, in his infinite wisdom, hidden it from them until such time that he actually tasted a pork chop.

Now that's divine wisdom, right there...

Jesus appears in the greek new testament as the nomina sacra code "J_S". This same code appears in the LXX as the coded name for Joshua. The new testament fabricators sought to capitalize on the antiquity of the lineage of the sacred names (codes).
