Archangel Gabriel very respectfully waited for the Blessed Lady to consent: "Be it done unto me according to your word."

I don't think you'd argue that God would impregnate Mary essentially by capture, against her will. I'm betting neither of us would go for a Koran-themed divinity.

English is NOT your first language??


Luke 1:26-38  Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)

 

26 And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth,

27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

28 And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

29 Who having heard, was troubled at his saying, and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be.

30 And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God.

31 Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus.

32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever.

33 And of his kingdom there shall be no end.

34 And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man?

35 And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shalt come upon thee, and the power of the most High shalt overshadow thee. And therefore also the Holy which shalt be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

36 And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:

37 Because no word shalt be impossible with God.

38 And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. 



(shall / shalt is NOT 'asking' Mary if she'll do something for GOD)

(This ain't CONSENTING)

Oh?

When Rome 'argues' that GOD can do ANYTHING?

Especially anything that Rome says GOD HAS done; with NO proof?

Angel: Mary; you ARE gonna get pregnant and it IS going to be done by the Holy Spirit.
