Lots and lots of virgin births are recorded

Robert, Robert, Robert......you and I both know this, but she has managed to convince millions to the contrary. I'm pretty impressed by that.

When I was a kid and the girl next door got pregnant as a young teen, she at least told everyone she was asleep at the time.

Over the years many have come to believe in a translation that uses words like "young woman." Days of arguing about prized virginity have been gone for years. 🙂

Virginity is still prized in some cultures. God/Men "born of a virgin" was not uncommon then and you will note that the earliest gospel of Mark did not include the nativity scene so it was probably added by later writers to make Jesus more godlike.
The Roman Catholic church still venerate the virgin Mary

@Moravian She came to me in a dream one time and was very surprised that I did not recognize her. A ball of glowing light surrounding a pound of ashes, she floated about 5 foot off the ground.

@DenoPenno A pound of ashes ?. That must have been some spliff man.
