This is offensive nonsense. She had not consummated her betrothal to Joseph with sexual intercourse. If her consent to God would have made her an adulteress, then God taking her without her consent would have made God guilty of wrongdoing against Joseph and the seducer (at least) of a virgin.

This is all so repulsive it almost makes me ill. I hope I can get the repugnant, ugly ideas expressed on this thread out of my head. What a putrid sump this forum has become.

Joseph considered DIVORCING her.

IOW, it was recognized as a valid marriage although it had not been consumated.
