Daily Beast: St. Joan of Arc Was a Transgender

Was St. Joan of Arc a medieval French heroine who followed God’s instructions and united her country against the marauding English? Or was she a dude Jay Michaelson sat next to in his Queer Theory survey class?

[BunnySlippers]

Oh PLEASSE!!!!

[Mrs. Don-o]

Yeah, but St. Joan of Arc is a canonized Catholic saint. In fact, she wanted to (and had a right to) appeal the verdict of the court to Rome, and her captors illegally wouldn't let her.

So if you're going to attack Christianity, it racks up double the points id you attack Catholic heroines.

My uncle knew that but he was making a joke.

[Christie at the beach]

Very true, Mrs. Don-o.

[DManA]

When you conflate history with religious dogma both ends up pretty worthless..

[Mrs. Don-o]

OK

:o)

[Mrs. Don-o]

Not sure what you’re getting at here.

That doenst make sense.
The english court could not find fault in her beliefs other than her apparel so they ended up judging her guilty and killing her because she wore men’s clothes. She wore pants in order not to get raped. When incarcerated they gave her lady clothes which she wore, and the later she fought off one of the jailors that tried to rape her, and requested again pants instead of a skirt. That sealed her fate. She was a girl that wore pants.

I have noticed that as well, they are indeed very irritating , almost as much as those with no sense of humor.

I once heard a comedian make the statement......why when we speak to God its called prayer, but when God speaks to us its call schizophrenia

There is NOTHING numerous about what happened to Joan of Arc.

I agree Zulu, as far as I know Joan was the only one burned at the stake that day.
