    No. They believe she never had sex. Jesus needs to be an only child and conceived by god or he’s not special enough.

    The real miracle in the Bible is that Joseph didn’t fuck for his entire marriage and was ok with that.

      Jesus needs to be an only child and conceived by god or he’s not special enough.

      I seem to recall that back then, there were a lot of myths about virgin births. So even that lie wasn’t particularly special, in the grand scheme of things.

      The real miracle in the Bible is that Joseph didn’t fuck for his entire marriage and was ok with that.

      According to Christian mythology Jesus has several brothers and sisters from Mary and Joseph. So no miracle there. One just has to wonder if they waited until after Jesus was born to start fucking.
