Now, I just thought of this so, please excuse me if 1) someone else thought of this before, 2) it isn't horribly well thought out.
Please note Christians, that I am NOT doing this just for shock value. I think that this is a serious avenue for the immorality of god.
Let's start with a model.
A young girl who is definitely under age has sex with an older adult. She had no choice in the matter. She bears a child. That child goes on to do good things.
Certainly if I did the above actions I would be considered a rapist and a child molester. It really wouldn't matter if the child of the rape turned out to be the next Bill Gates or manages to bend his or her head around interstellar travel.
God is all-powerful. And adult could be considered to be all-powerful over a younger girl (obviously a male adult in this case). Mary is a female - fairly newly married.
God comes to her and says 'You will have my child and he will do great things.'
Now, not everyone wants great things for their children. Some people just want their children to have a good life and hopefully have some grand children.
So, he does the did because he is - after all sovereign. I certainly doubt someone can consent to anything that a god says it is going to do.
Of course she is married. So, there is adultry there.
Apparently, god might not have been corporeal. So, he impregnates her and goes off on his merry way.
My wife would argue that this is worse - as she wouldn't have the 1.5 minutes of enjoyment before being pregnant with a 9 month struggle and painful birth.
So, adultry - she was clearly violated during marriage - even if it wasn't sexual in nature it was sexual in production. She may or may not have been consenting, but since humans are like children to god, god shouldn't have had sex or reproduced with Mary.
So, child (humans are his children), his children (incest) and adulterer as Mary was married at the time. Oh, and rapist, since Mary had no choice but to consent.
I think that's correct? Of course I suppose it depends on the meaning of the word sex, is. Or maybe I'm just stretching it too much.
