Komodo Jesus!!!

[Kire]

A komodo dragon is having a virgin birth, probably on Christmas.

Perhaps the birth of Raptor Jesus?

It'd be more of Komodo Marry, actually... Jesus couldn't give birth.

No, but Komodo Jesus would be born.

I hope they don't crucify Komodo Jesus like they did that last Jesus.

Have I mentioned my love for Komodos?

Flora has never mated, or even mixed, with a male dragon, and fertilized all the eggs herself, a process culminating in parthenogenesis, or virgin birth. Other lizards do this, but scientists only recently found that Komodo dragons do too.

Re: Komodo Jesus!!!

"The genetics of self-fertilization in lizards means that all her hatchlings would have to be male. These would grow up to mate with their own mother and therefore, within one generation, there would potentially be a population able to reproduce normally on the new island," Buley said.

I wanna make this joke before anybody else does.

Mother-****ers!

Re: Komodo Jesus!!!

What were those called again? Water dragons? Dracos?

Re: Komodo Jesus!!!

They are the new Christ, you blasphemer.

Re: Komodo Jesus!!!

Technically, as these things do this all the time, then isn't it not really all that special? I mean, Komodos gotta be the coolest thing going (I'm not trying to take away fom them) but this is like saying, "That oak is dropping acorns and I haven't seen it mate once! It just stands there! Virgin Mary Oak!!!"

Sure, the Christmas coincidence is kinda cool, but as these things live in the Southern Hemisphere isn't this the time when they normally... "do the deed"?

"MARY WAS REALLY A LIZARD!!!"

Now this explains everything.... except for why Joseph married a lizard.

Re: Komodo Jesus!!!

He was a lizardman, end of story.

And MagusMart (not to be confused with SirTMagus)> I think it was trying to imply that komodo dragons, up until know, were incapable of virgin births.

And actually, some trees have genders. All apple trees that produce fruit are female.
