“The Catholic/Orthodox Church teaches that Christ was born supernaturally just as he was conceived supernaturally, and just as Mary's conception did not violate her virignity, neither did Christ's birth.”
More tales from the apocrypha and “since he could do anything he did this and such because he could”.
Point well taken. Obviosuly I was thinking of a different verse.

Whether they are tales form "apocrypha" or not is not the point. The point is that is what the Church teaches. You can take it or leave it.
The reason for the belief has to do with the supernatural nature of Incarnation and Resurrection as such.
