There is no atonement without the immaculate conception.

the repeated mention of Jesus' siblings

The Hebrew language had no word for cousin - those related by blood around the same age were called "brothers."

If God, through the angel Gabriel, were to ask Mary to take on the task of being the Mother of God, surely He would have abided by and would have found a way to satisfy her wish to remain a virgin.

So we are to assume that after Christ’s birth Mary became just an ordinary woman? Not believable. “Blessed are you and blessed is the fruit of thy womb”. I believe “blessed” is the important word here.

Roman Catholic tenets of Mary's immaculate conception

Shared and taught by Luther.

and her perpetual virginity

Shared and taught by Calvin, Luther, Zwingli, et al.

Most contemporary protestants are unaware of and thus protest the original tenets of the founders of their own denominations.

Why is Matthew then, so concerned with the patrilineal line to Joseph?
