One could ask why you are so obsessed with sex.

If you knew anything about Jewish history or ancient Jewish customs you would know that under Jewish Law Jesus was obligated to give care of his mother to a living sibling. Anything else was a violation of Jewish Law, thus a sin. Jesus Christ DID NOT sin because there was no lawful brother or sister to give care of her to. That is the point.

Am I to assume you are claiming Jesus never violated Jewish Law?

I think part of it is a subtle need to denigrate Mary. Mind you, there is nothing inherently dirty or denigrating about sex. But there's a weird need to have us Catholics admit that Mary submitted hereself to her husband, that she had sex. It's the language that's used, as if we're supposed to visualize this in our minds.

I've seen this elsewhere on FR, but usually more vulgar (references to Mary's uterus, sex organs, here being a mere receptacle, things like that)

One could reply and ask why you would even say something like that.
