Christians totally misunderstand the virgin birth and Catholics even further misundersatnd it(Mary(PBUH) remained a virgin all her life, yet Jesus(PBUH) had many brothers and sisters;Mary's birthed children).
The Virgin Birth according to us muslims was a miracle, a sign that Allah exists and lives, similar to the miracle of Adam and Eve's miraculous birth. Are they divine?NO! How in the world could a human male be born without the contribution of male Y chromosome? It is the male that confers the sex on a child. Without it the child would be female with only one X, if the child could even be born. Instead of looking at the biological facts and calling it a miracle, christians ignore the biological facts IN ORDER TO call it a miracle. "Neither egg nor sperm was involved in God becoming man" According to this idea Jesus was not really a man but a being that took on the FORM of a man. This totally destroys the doctrine of Hypostatic Union. To continue, if God adopted us as his children as Paul says, then god did not create us at all, and the god of the bible is NOT GOD, but Lucifer, or some other being. Only Lucifer or some other being could adopt us in "spirit". To also continue, christians always talk about being co-heirs with christ in god's kingdom, so how is it god favours christ with a higher ranking than his adopted sons,typical of the hypocritical, DAVID. Furthermore there are numerous occasions where other humans and angels are referred to as sons of god. There are also two occasions(DAVID(PBUH) AND SOLOMON(PBUH)) where god refers to his BEGOTTEN sons, as sighhswolf so astutely notes. I for one do not want to be adopted by god(LUCIFER). peace and blessings [ August 03, 2002: Message edited by: ansarthemystic ]</p> |
