To my fellow believers...please don't be shocked by such blinded questions and statements made by the non-believers who post on this site. Please don't be shocked...for that is what non-believers do. God forewarned us what would happen. 2nd Timothy Chapter 3 in the last days.
Unfortunately, what they don't realize is that ALL of us, including them will stand before the judgment seat of Christ. At that time they will have the opportunity to ask these questions. I am confident that Christ will answer them. In the meantime, I will pray for them to repent and turn to Christ, and not away!

Not exactly. Your question really is a good one. Before answering, though, I ask you to keep in mind that we are talking about God, not mortal mankind. Once you understand that, then you can let go of some of the paradigms that a lot of people have trouble getting around. Yes, Jesus was God in the flesh. The first chapter of the Gospel according to John makes this clear. However, it was not Jesus, but the Holy Spirit that Mary conceived of. There was no physical interaction involved. This is recorded in the first chapter of the Gospel according to Matthew. The problem that many people have is that because of our mortal experiences, we have trouble grasping that God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit, three distinct and separate aspects of the same entity. We have trouble with this because in our universe, one person can not be in two places and do two different things at the same time. But God is transcendental. Heaven is not constrained by time-space so God can be in multiple places take on multiple forms and do multiple things at any time. God gives us the titles "God the Father" and "God the Son" mostly for our benefit and because those titles are most accurately descriptive of those aspects of God. I suppose if you don't like those titles, you could call them "God the Creator" and "God the Redeemer". Jesus certainly had enough titles so I can not see Him denying those either. So God the Son, Jesus was conceived of God the Holy Spirit according to the will of God the Father. Of course the Trinity is not specifically mentioned in the Bible. But then again, neither are the moons of Jupiter. The Trinity is a word used by Biblical scholars to identify and simplify a series of statements in the scripture which allude to a Triune Deity. In other words, the Bible talks about the Trinity, it just never actually names it.

The Holy Spirit moved upon Mary and she was with child. There wad nothing vulgar or sinful about it. It was a miraculous event.

First off, i'm not sure where you got the info that God got Mary pregnant!! Mary was Joseph's wife. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit.
Think of it this way, God chooses to bless a woman with a child without the act of intercourse.

Christians will say the birth was non-sexual. But the bottom line is if Jesus is God's son, God should be married to Mary, which he is not.
