biblewonk, I have some really good news for you. News which apparently the church you are currently attending has not seen fit to share with you. God became Man. A man just like us in all things except sin. And in so doing, He conquered sin. Jesus was not some new genetic line. Jesus was born of a woman. I would strongly urge you to check out Galatians 4:4. Also, note the wording in Luke 1:31:

And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

Note the "thou." It is Mary who shall "conceive." Now check out Hebrews 11:11. This verse indicates just what is meant by the word "conceive."

"Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.

Conceive means to participate in God's process of the Creation of Life. The exact same word, "conceive," is used in both Luke and Hebrews. Both Mary and Sara, "conceived."

Your Lord is far closer to you than you have been led to believe.

Please re-review the verses with the caption *** Mother of God*** that I posted. How much does it detract from Mary if it wasn't her egg? It detracts nothing from the Mary of the bible, it detracts a ton from the RC Mary.
