Just like Constantine and Helena, only in th case of the boss he actually invented an alternative fraudulent lineage (as did most of the Roman emperors).

only if God or the Holy Spirit was an adulterer.

And if Mary was betrothed to Jospeh, then God and/or the Holy Spirit really was an adulterer! Yes?

Anthromorphism provided YHWH many human physical characteristics, eyes, ears, mouth, and hands, even though we are informed that YHWH is not a man.
Hmmmm? Did that mean that in spite of having all this other anthromorphic equipment, He lacked that ONE important piece of equipment that makes a man a "man"?
Does a "Holy Ghost" or "Spirit" have a penis???? does it have physical dimensions? physically occupying time and space? and capable of the act of penetration and physical copulation? I don't know :huh:
As I've never seen, nor heard a clear description of YHWH's "package".
Kind of makes one wonder though, with all YHWH's fixation on circumcision and foreskins, was ol' YHWH hisself circumcised?

But a little more seriously, could it really be "adultery" if no physical sex act was even engaged in?
Of course this would be a question for the courts, but then different courts in different cultures might easily arrive at varying opinions.
Normally, in human relations, our legal systems are not apt to finding a charge of Adultery valid if no evidence physical sex act can be ascertained.
In this instance all three parties make statements to the effect that there was NO act of adultery involved. Thus it does not appear that any such Adultery charge,- being brought in by only strictly "hear-say" witnesses alone, would at all hold up in a Court of Law.
