considering over 2000 years ago and now, we all know mating results in pregnancy, so how can joseph and mary that considered themselves couples claim they never had sex b4 giving birth to Jesus? in the situation of virgin births we still know there is some kind of foreplay that leads to the male depositing some sperms in the vulva without penetrating....
can anyone claim what mary claim then, now? why?
please dont give answers on God can do anything or whatever, there should be enough proof.

I cam corded them the whole time.at no time were they left alone. Is that what you mean. Sort of like the 4 males witnessing a rape before an Arab woman can be believed? Be reasonable. It is a faith thing. And the testimony of her Son. If he is God, as he claimed, then his birth was as recorded. If He is not God, as many say. Then his birth would have been like every ones . So I guess it is a faith thing. I have read articles where what is written in the Bible about the subject are pulled together and explained. Very interesting,

Mary didn't claim that nothing happened to her she said the Spirit of the Most High came upon her. You can believe she sinned if you like for those of us who trust the Bible she remained a virgin until after the birth of Jesus... Jim

I do not think that we can believe Mary....
When Jesus was born, no one knew that he was going to be what he became...
On religious matters people do not question..doing so will jeopardise everything.
Look for example Islam and the prophet Mohammed, there are so many wrongs committed but people just do not question them. Many acts considered satanic in human values are just accepted in the name of their god.
Today, no one can claim what Mary claimed. People will not allow it. We will not make new gods but many will continue to believe in the old gods..

Mary was chosen.She was a virgin.Her soon to be husband was sent a message from God and he knew that she hadn`t cheated on him and that she was carring the child of God.This is a miracle.What we understand and what God can do are worlds apart.To believe in God takes faith.We walk by faith.We have never seen God ,but as christians we believe .

No one can have a "virgin birth" today unless they somehow become pregnant without sex. And I think the "virgin" term from the bible ment that no man had any part (sperm) in the conception so for that to truly take place today, you'd have to be a komodo dragon.

The proof is in God's word, the Bible. God spoke to Mary and told her she would have a baby and he would be God's son.
She was indeed a virgin when she conceived of the Holy Spirit.

If you really do the research, Nowhere in the old manuscripts do you find any challenge to the virgin birth. even the kings that went out to destroy the baby knew who he was and where he came from.
Because Jesus was without the inherited faults (sins) of the human race. He was the perfect sacrifice for sin. Thereby cleansing anyone who will believe in him, from their sin (imperfection)
sin: an archery term meaning 'missing the mark' (bullseye)
Romans 5 chapter 18
Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life

Matthew 1
18Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
19Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
20But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
21And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
22Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
23Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

Read Matthew 1:24,25
24 Then Joseph woke up from his sleep and did as the angel of Jehovah had directed him, and he took his wife home. 25 But he had no intercourse with her until she gave birth to a son; and he called his name Jesus.
