Have you heard of the term “virgin birth,” you ignorant dope? Apparently not. Here are some of the biblical references (note, this are CHRISTIAN, not limited to Catholic):

Isaiah 7:14 “Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: the virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.” (New International Version[NIV])
“Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Look, the young woman is with child and shall bear a son and shall name him Immanuel.” (New Revised Standard Version [NRSV])
“Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” (American Standard Version [ASV]) More details

Matthew 1:23 “The virgin shall be with child, and will give birth to a son, and they shall call him Immanuel; which means, ‘God with us.’” (NIV)
“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, And they shall call his name Immanuel; which is, being interpreted, God with us.” (ASV)

Or are you confusing the term “immaculate conception,” which is a strictly Catholic doctrine refering to MARY’s birth, with the virgin birth of Christ? Or have you even heard of these term?

PS Biblical references are valid here even if you think it is a work of fiction because you are ignorantly blathering on about what you FEEL Christians believe.

What mechanism did God use to impregnate Mary? What does “virgin” mean in Hebrew and Aramaic?
