Age 17 too young to have a baby?

Researchers have said that there was a certain “virgin” who was between 12 to 14 years old, not married, and living with an older man when she became pregnant.

The birth of her child has been celebrated for 2,000 years.

That’s slander. No way she was that young.

If you're referring to Mary, the mother of Jesus: Scripture says nothing about her age, nothing about the age of her betrothed husband Joseph, she didn't go to live with him as his wife until after the Annunciation and after the angel came to Joseph in a dream and told him to fear not and take her home as his wife.
