1. Furthermore, Jesus mentioned this fact of life.

These people claim to revere Jesus, but they ignore anything he said that does not agree with their rigid tribal traditions. In the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 19, his disciples questioned how people could live up to his idea of marriage totally with both men and women loving and faithful. Jesus briefly mentioned that this is not for everyone. "Some were born eunuchs from their mothers' wombs, and others were made eunuchs by other men, and some have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of serving heaven." The word "eunuchs" was of course from the Greek translation of his words. These people who pretend that all human beings are born either totally male or totally female are going against what Jesus said. And his audience acted as though this was common knowledge. And your post clearly shows that the ancient rabbis all faced this simple fact of life unflinchingly and analytically.
