We must understand the language to be conveying something more than the present state of affairs. It is, at least meant to mean that she has not known a man up to that point in time.

The present tense is, like Bill Clinton, only that she is not currently, at that moment, knowing a man.

I'll let others tell you how incredibly stupid this is.

Steven, sayign something is "stupid" is not an argument.

You keep repeating the same words from Scripture, I would think you would be open open to discuss what they mean.

I would be wrong, however. You don't seem to view words as conveyors of meaning, just as a cudgel. And since you answer only with "stupid" I won't bother you further.
