Apparently, I must make it simple for you, we can Via Artificial insemination create a virgin birth today.

And would that 'virgin birth' have ANY relationship to the unique Birth of the Christ Child?

It would be a counterfeiting of God's miracle, kind of like Pharaoh's magicians, but no, it would only create a normal child. It is an example however, of how someone can be a literal father without "sex". I am quite sure God has better ways of doing his miracles that we could possibly conceive of. (pun fully intended)

I will iterate, creating a "virgin birth" by scientific means is of no efficacy for the child so created, it only serves to show a literal father, need not have had sex to be a father. Mormons believe the Virgin birth, and God's literal paternity at the same time.
