I wish Frank Zappa were around to see that.

So with android men and women it’s okay. You’re home free, Mr Data.

Another moment!? It’s the whole year so far!
It feels like the scummy idiocy always present in the noosphere is reaching out into reality with terrible eldritch tentacles to drive us all to the brink of madness. Fools run the nation to molest the flag and bible alike while their supporters wear clear marks upon their foreheads.

So, people born via section aren’t allowed to have sex?

I see I need to once again drag out my “if they are staunchly anti-X, they are undoubtedly closet X” for a certain paRty.
In this case: Family Values, and Ten Commandments.
I’m appalled by the hypocrisy, not the “immorality”

Jim Bakker was utterly destroyed and usurped by Jerry Falwell Sr. over Bakker’s affair with Jessica Hahn. It’s going to be interesting to see if and how Bakker weighs in on Falwell Jr. now.

Damn! TIL Jim Bakker isn’t in hell yet.

I thought this network was eventually sold off to Disney?
(Not to be confused with Trinity Broadcasting Network in Orange County, CA, owned by the Crouch family.)
ETA: It was originally a Pat Robertson thing, not Falwell’s.

Unlike Falwell, you are doing the Lord’s work.

Commas save lives. And clarify poorly written crap.
What is a natural-born man or woman? Naturally? Caesarean sections are out? What about water births? What about epidurals? Hospital births? Can you have had a midwife when you were born, and still have sex at Liberty? Does born mean conceived, too? Do they rule out i vitro fertilization? Why does it matter how you were born? And wtf does Bilbically Ordained even mean?
I don’t think I would hire anyone who went to that college (err, university???) if this is how they teach people to write.

I figure that they are referring to non-transgendered.
This is what they get for not studying Shakespeare (specifically Macbeth) at Liberty U.

You meant C-section, I presume?

That was the loophole in Macbeth (whose title character had been assured by the Weird Sisters that “no man born of woman” could harm him).

That’s idiotic a/f; a woman’s womb and a woman’s stomach are still both “OF woman.”

Whoever speaks to him next, ask Falwell who he likes to have sex with. Ask him what he masturbates over. Ask him who he masturbates over. Ask him about Granda’s ass pumping away in front of him as Granda fucked Becki. What and who was he into at that moment?
Ask him all about it. Ask him about his sexuality. Ask him about his sex life. Don’t worry about seeming tasteless or intrusive, because Jerry Falwell Jr. has been tastelessly intruding on LGBTQ people—apparently disgusted by what they do in bed—all his life. Judge, judge, and sex-shame some more: this has been Falwell’s chosen way to promote himself and his beliefs at the expense of LGBTQ people’s safety and equality. Now he may get to know just a small dose of what that judge-and-shame spin-cycle feels like.

There’s a reason Shakespeare isn’t celebrated for his enlightened views of biology, women’s bodily autonomy or narrative logic.
In the play the justification for the distinction is that Macduff was “untimely ripped” from his dying (dead?) mother’s womb rather than “born.”
Lord of the Rings used a variation of this “loophole” to kill the Witch-King. You gotta read the fine print on those prophesies.
