Wait a second. Are we talking about gods reproducing as if they are seperate male and female individuals that we are all familiar with here on Earth?

Well, gods are beyond me, I suppose they can reproduce any manner they see fit.

Certainly, it's evident in Greek Mythology: Hercules, Apollo and Diana, Athena (who sprang fully armored from Zeus' head), and Persephone; in Tolkien: Melian the Maia; and in Christianity: Jesus, son of God (I always felt bad for Joseph in that regard); as well as in Egyptian, Hindu and Norse mythos (and many others).

Yes, I think Jesus would want us to reach our inner-most Heart of Being. This is not an easy trip to complete. Too much material in the way. You simply cannot mix force with substance any ole way, it has to be done just right.
