Does it seem appropriate that Jesus was 'conveyed' unto the Virgin Mary via the Holy Spirit ??
Wasn't this something He could have managed on His own ??
IOW, by asserting the Holy Spirit was extant to under take this task, it weakens the case for the Trinity since Jesus seems to not be available at this point and for those claiming He is just as eternal as God and as capable, Scripture is not helping to reinforce this tenant of faith.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
