I’m kinda curious about your source. The infancy gospel of James puts her at 16, still creepy, and it also has fun weird shit like the priests having her take a magic abortion potion test to prove her purity and her vag burning the midwife’s hand.
The Greek word that’s eventually translated to English “virgin” means unwed. (I have no source at hand to support that.)
Let’s employ Occam’s razor.
Mary (lit. Beloved) is just some dirt poor farmers daughter who got knocked up and ran away to the next village with her boy friend. Gave birth in a barn.
Then 25 years later this dude shows up again, a carpenter by trade, and is a total hippie.
Then all his mates write down his adventures in letters to each other.
Mary wasn’t the virgin, her mother was. She had to be pure that way to carry jebus. It’s so nonsensical even the followers of the religion get their own shit wrong.
I thought immaculate conception was the idea that Christians had about heritable sin from Adam and Eve, and that when Mary was conceived the sin associated with humanity in general skipped her somehow. Virgin birth, something separate, was Mary making Jesus via parthogenesis and Bible magic. Someone correct me if I’m wrong I grew up in a cult so I got half of this off the internet.
You forgot the one little fact that said virgin was 13 at the time of impregnation.

Southern Baptist. It’s what I was “taught” by some uppity Sunday School Teacher (or the preacher, or both).
Haha funny I thought those guys hated everything not explicitly in the KJV, but they clearly still have their own headcanon
It gets better.

The plot of The Hobbit?
Bilbo never married!
I hear this Jesus guy is a pretty big deal with the Republicans. He’s probably on that list they won’t release.
Apparently, he is too woke for them now, but still go worship a woke god every week.
Always has been. Jesus is basically the superhero tier of communist hippie. And he’s brown. Republicans fucking hate him.
We didn’t have rules back then

What? Mary was allegedly a virgin when she became pregnant with Jesus, but that’s not what immaculate conception is about.
I thought immaculate conception was the idea that Christians had about heritable sin from Adam and Eve, and that when Mary was conceived the sin associated with humanity in general skipped her somehow.

It varies by denomination.
Explaining crazy with crazier is pretty crazy. Just saying.
Right, but the mythology is pretty clear about her being a virgin.
