This definitely says "virgin". End of discussion for Catholics!

Are you speaking for all Catholics, or are you speaking for yourself ? I'm sure that there are other Catholics out there who would like to explain to us why VIRGIN is a valid and proper translation of the Hebrew word -- ALMA.

I can understand your point of view when you say the Catholic Church says so, therefore it must be so, but I'm sure there are a lot of people who WANT TO KNOW the reasons for the church saying so.

Did you read the footnote 7 for Verse 14? almah is the word.
