Hi Vinnie - your imagination and artistic taste are appreciated, but I think this goes to Humor.

But Xavier's School for the Gifted is only for mutants -- homo superior.

Remember how, in X2: X-Men United, Pyro said that the "mutant gene" is only passed down from the father? Well, Jesus had no biological father! He only had a haploid set of chromosomes (which is what the "H." stands for in his middle name, according to Penn and Teller), and all of those chromosomes would've had to have come from his mother!

Therefore, Jesus cannot be a mutant. Q.E.D..

Yes, but since some argue to harmonize the genealogies of Junior, that one of them flows through Mary, then, like Cartman, Mary was Junior's father.

It all makes sense . . . if you have faith. . . .

Humorous in context, but makes no genetic sense

If that were true, there are only two logical conclusions: it only originates in the father and so most mutants would acquire it from the father, although mutant women could pass it on. OR, it's passed along the Y chromosome... which would mean that there would only be male mutants!

So either Pyro was wrong, or the mutation originates in normal human males, although it can be passed along by male and female mutants.

Yes, I am a nerd.

OR: All the "female" mutants we see actually have a Y chromosome (i.e. are either XY or XXY) but, due to a failed release of the SR-Y protein, developed along female lines in the womb. Many, if not most, of the "female" mutants may actually be hermaphrodites.

Maybe that's why Xavier called all his mutants the X-Men....

It's threads like this that make me feel inferior

Aw, don't feel so bad, I'm sure your mutant powers will manifest themselves sometime!

(Let's just hope they're the kind of mutant powers that are subject to conscious control....)

Well, yes that's possible. Except that in the X-men universe many of the women are mothers, and hermaphrodites are usually sterile.
