Birth of Jesus Again?

Some Christian links appear next to my blog every now and then. One of the links maintains the divinity of Jesus by saying that there is no way a woman can get pregnant without the participation of man. When Mary got pregnant, she was not sired by God. This is a blasphemy . What the Bible does not tell us, is that God has full control over every atom in the universe and all that He needs to do is to command those atoms to form whatever He wills including to make Mary pregnant.

The Quraan tells us Mary's mother prayed to the Lord for a son who would take care of the temple one day. However the mother was blessed with a daughter, Mary. Nevertheless a son, Jesus, was born to Mary in answer to the prayer of Mary's mother. As for the spirit of God endowed to the infant Jesus, he was not the only one who got this gift of God. Everybody else has it too given to him when he is three months old in the womb. That is why we get this awareness of God, Lord Father whatever. God does things according to conventional scientific laws - God's Laws rather - but He know all the short cuts just as in the case of Mary's pregnancy. We don't know these short cuts.

I am reminded of a TV show in America. Somebody was introducing Larry King to the audience. He said "Larry is the most virile man in America and a woman can get pregnant just by sitting next to him". God of course does not work this way.
