I'd like to add a bit about Jesus' geneology:
So you say jesus is god's son: If there was immaculate conception, how does his lineage not go directly to god and stop right there?
Ok, so you say he IS god. Again, NO lineage due to him impregnating Mary himself. He is his own lineage.
If he is who you say he is, either joseph is his father, thus no immaculate conception, or his lineage is false.

Re: Immaculate deception
Plus, according to the Nathan prophecy the Messiah will be an ADOPTED son of Yahweh, not an actual son.
*Well then, that would fit jesus to a tee, yes? Would Joseph not have adopted this bastard child of Mary's?
But then he wouldn't be god OR god's son.
The way I see it, the story goes about the 3 wisemen and whatnot, you would think ONE of them would have noted what day it was, what with this being the fucking savior of mankind and all. An entire religion, millions of people, is based off this fella, yet no one is certain of his birthday? He is the seemingly only person where his death is more celebrated than his birth. I think this comic sums it up nicely:
*I wholeheartedly admit to not being as studied on Theology as most here. However, I have read enough of the bible to spot these inaccuracies (for myself. Maybe not enough to sway believers, but enough to not be swayed by them).

At first glance, I thought you called ME a failure and a bastard. I was 2 seconds away from typing up a venomous, curse word laiden post in response.

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.
