So you quote my post and yet you didn't read it because in the last paragraph I wrote " Because if it acknowledged the existence of the ovum, then it would have only two choices: either change the Creed to read, "50 percent conceived by the Holy Spirit" or, should the Church continue to deny Mary an ovum, then she becomes not Jesus' mother but his foster mother or, to put it crudely, a rented womb."
So on which team are you: team 50 percent conceived by the Holy Spirit or team rented womb?
btw how did angel Gabriel carry God's sperm from Heaven to Earth? Was it in his mouth? Or does God maybe have a very long dick so he just unrolled it down all the way from a cloud?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
