Catholics desperately want to believe Mary and Joseph never had sex, while protestants don't care.I wish I could have the hours back that I wasted on LOST. Those fuckers and that heaven's waiting room ending...grrrrrrr….damn I was mad.
The most honest article I could find is a protestant article that is taking into account what Catholics and some of the prominent Christians want to believe versus Mt. 1:25
Surprisingly, article calls out Catholic game of playing the usual "the world in the Bible has many meanings/ it is wrongly translated" as deceptive, just as their quick practice of changing the subject from Mt. 1:25 to some other verses.
But the conclusion from the article is:
Quote:Both Martin Luther and John Calvin affirmed the perpetual virginity of Mary. Whether or not they and the Roman Catholic Church are correct will ultimately be decided when we encounter the Lord, and he reveals the truth to us in heaven.

So you heard it: it's one of those mysteries that Christians will learn the answer to when they are dead. Along with all the secrets from "Lost" and "Battlestar Galactica".
