The familiar Christmas story, including the virgin conception and birth of Jesus, is found in the gospels of Matthew and Luke. Scholars have pointed out that these stories are somewhat disconnected from other parts of these Gospels and the rest of the New Testament. In fact, by the time he is a young boy in the temple, Jesus’s parents seem to have forgotten the virgin birth. They act surprised by his odd behavior. There is never any other mention in the New Testament of these incredible events! These stories seem to be an afterthought, written later than the rest of the gospels that contain them. To make matters more interesting, the stories themselves have inconsistencies and ambiguities – contradictory genealogies, for example. Our Christmas story (singular) is actually a composite.

It's the virign birth that has been attached later on. Just as the latin word anus can mean crone or asshole, the hebrew word almah also has different meanings.

So, originally Joseph and Mary probably did have some rough sex in the desert resulting in Jesus.

But we're trying to explain bullshit with bullshit here anyway.

One may as well ask if Luke fucked Princess Leia?

I guess the hardest part was for Mary to distract Joseph's attention from the sheep long enough.

I'm sure she could pull off wrapping herself in some pieces of fur and saying "määääh" (*)


(*) in English: maaaah

And here I thought it was some Syrian archer.

Isn't that a goat though?

If Mary did give virgin birth, Jesus would have been a woman.
