Subject: RE: BS: Of storks and cabbage leaves
At age 11 or so, a group of us had a deep theological discussion after hearing that another boy's sister was pregnant. Didn't God KNOW she wasn't married?
He would of course if God were the father but it would appear that being moral - God only picked married women in which to plant the holy seed.
Once the way these things were normally done was firmly in my young mind and this appeared to me miracle enough - you then were asked to struggle to accept the idea of imaculate conception.
No wonder we are so confused and as regards sex education - perhaps intentionally so?
