Because Mary was a perpetual virgin, she never thought about sex. Joseph never thought about sex either. It never says that in the Bible, but to suggest otherwise really makes 'em mad...be careful and tread lightly.

Poor Joseph and Mary!! I don't think God would have condemned Mary and Joseph to a life without sexual pleasure just because she was chosen to give birth to the Son of God. What type of earthly father would that have made Joseph? Talk about "flustrated." ;)

BTW, sorry for harping on the son-of-Joseph-not-Jesus" misprint.

Now wait a minute. The Bible says Mary had kids. Jesus had brothers and sisters, yet they get mad because we mention it? Of course she laid with her husband. That's what wives do. She was just a body. If she'd have told God "no thank you", he'd have found a replacement. Geeeeez. The Bible says nothing about the dieity nor the sainthood of Mary for crying out loud. Whare'd that idea come from?

Mark 6:3 says, "Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him." See also Matthew 12:46.

Just how is this perpetual? No where in the Bible is she called a Perpetual Virgin, or even hinted at.
