Theological Question of the Century...
Did Mary come?
Did she scream 'Oh Gawd!' and mean it?
Or..
Did the Horny Spirit leave her hanging?
This I believe to be the most important theological question of all time.

Christianity: A disgusting middle eastern blood cult, based in human sacrifice, with sacraments of cannibalism and vampirism, whose highest icon is of a near naked man hanging in torment from a device of torture.

Of course she did, big time! How do you think she came up with name for her son?
Taxation is the price we pay for failing to build a civilized society. The higher the tax level, the greater the failure. A centrally planned totalitarian state represents a complete defeat for the civilized world, while a totally voluntary society represents its ultimate success. --Mark Skousen

No no no . . you have it all wrong. Joseph inadvertantly named the child well before he was born. This is how it really went down . . .
Mary: JoJo boy?
Joseph: Yes hairy Mary?
Mary: I'm pregnant.
(long silence)
Joseph: JESUS CHRIST!

He seems to leave people hanging all the time. I see no reason why this would be any different.
A bigger, and I think, more important issue. Since Jesus was Jewish, he was subject to the law until such a time as he declared that he was no longer under the law, which, IIRC, was in his 30s. So... in light of the passage in Leviticus indicating that women should be given poison to see if they have been faithful, shouldn't Mary have had to go through that test? I mean... a baby certainly is a strong indicator of infidelity among virgins, but then, since she claimed divine immunity, shouldn't we have a record of her miraculously surviving the trial by poison?
