holiness and a virgin

[amanda_isabel]

hi everyone!

this thought just came to mind.

virgin mary was, well, a virgin. bvut then i do recall that back then it was holy to have sex at it was the way man could see God. however, because virgin Mary was a virgin, does it mean that she is not holy? Could it be that God chose to give her Jesus in her womb for the simple reason that she was not holy?

would love to hear, er, read your thoughts.

It was holy then and it is now to have sex between husband and wife, and not in any other forms or relationships. Promiscuousity was forbidden, just remember story of prostitute. God have chosen Mary of her holy way of life, she stayed clean and honest no matter of all bad things in society which surrounded her.
It would make no sense that God give his Son to an awful sinner. What kind of father would he be?
