Nebraska’s Republican Gov. Jim Pillen on Wednesday signed an executive order strictly defining a person’s sex.

The order notably does not use the term “transgender,” although it appears directed at limiting transgender access to certain public spaces. It orders state agencies to define “female” and “male” as a person’s sex assigned at birth.

“It is common sense that men do not belong in women’s only spaces,” Pillen said in a statement. “As Governor, it is my duty to protect our kids and women’s athletics, which means providing single-sex spaces for women’s sports, bathrooms, and changing rooms.”

The original Jesus myth he did die from being stoned, not crucified, so yeah that works.

Oh sorry got to play politically correct. There is a documentation of a guy calling himself the King of the Jews, was born to jewish parents, who claimed to have walked on water, had a trial by the Pharisees, and existed in the first century BC but that is all coincidence and has nothing to do with the guy slightly after with the same story.

There's a reason it's called by some "the greatest story on earth", and that's because versions of it it were told for ages before Jesus or Nazareth. It's just Joseph Campbell's monomyth with a literal cult behind it.

I'm curious though who you are referring to. No need to be politically whatever.
