[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm Catholic and know Mary was an unmarried woman known as a virgin.  Why are you people so obsessed with what anyone believes ?[/quote]

Because it is a little scary if people believe these weird things, without thinking them through. If she was a virgin, did Jezus only get her DNA? That is rather revolutionary.

Would be great if we can recreate this: imagine all the possibilities this would open up to infertile couples? No donor-sperm needed.[/quote]

Of all the "weird things" Christians believe, the virgin birth really doesn't strike me as high up there.  If you believe in an omniscient, omnipotent being who created the universe and did all the other things in the Bible, your problems with Christianity start way earlier than the Nativity story.  Considering what we know about artificial insemination, the virgin birth is more plausible than we one believed it was.  We know you don't need "sex" to produce a child, you need egg and a sperm.  Who says that Jesus didn't have God's dna?[/quote]
