Now this is important, you can't get xy (male) from xx (female), no matter how you p**** it. So in the case of Christ's conception, the "y" clearly came from somewhere external to Mary. According to Luke, that candidate would be the Father.

I hope this primer has helped you.

So God couldn't have done the same thing for Christ as he did for Adam? He IS the second Adam you know.
