The New Testament is quite clear that after the birth of Christ, Joseph and Mary had other children.

No need for historical contortions about it.

I agree and don't have a problem with the whole idea. It is my Catholic brethren who have an objection to the idea that the Blessed Mother had more than one kid. No offense, fellow RCs.

It makes sense to me, that Joseph and Mary would have had more children.

No it's not.

No need for historical contortions about it.

The belief that Mary and Joseph had children other than Jesus is a Protestant invention. Believing that He had brothers and sisters *is* the historical contortion.
