    But wait. Assuming this isn’t Flortucky, how’s a 12-year-old pregnant person have the ability to consent to:

    1. choose to marry
    2. marry
    3. sex
    4. cheat, and then
    5. sex again?

    “Which is more likely — that the whole natural order is to be suspended, or that a Jewish minx should tell a lie?” - Christopher Hitchens

      The same sentiment could be stated without reference to religion or objectifying women.

        I thought the same.

        “Which is more likely — that the whole natural order is to be suspended, or that a cheater should tell a lie?”

        Sounds better. You could say “adulterer” or “cuckolder” for different flavours.

    Surprisingly, there is such a thing as virgin births. They’re super rare, but also not a miracle.

      “Yes, (…) [but] the chances of these all happening in real life are virtually zero.”

      “(…) one of her eggs would have to produce, on its own, the biochemical changes indicative of fertilization, and then divide abnormally to compensate for the lack of sperm DNA.“

        That would never result in a viable human

    She also could have been the victim of rape and Joseph trying to protect her, instead of her being a cheater and Joseph being dumb. If they both did exist of course.

      Jesus did exist too but he was a regular human and some kind of pop star at the time

        I doubt he was a pop star at the time as the genre pop wasn’t invented back then :P

      She could also have been a hotwife and he could have been a cuckold. The possibilities are endless.

      What’s impossible is the holy ghost impregnating her.

    The thing is, the earliest versions of the gospels didn’t contain a nativity story at all, instead starting with Jesus’ baptism. The whole “virgin birth” thing was retconned in after the religion was already up and running.

    To be fair if picking the first option meant getting stoned to death for adultery, I would try my luck at the second option too.
