I am not aware of how religious scholars, or the Bible deal with this 'problem' regarding the immaculate conception.

FMF: I've been here over a decade and you won't find me talking in that way. One would need to feel angry, which I don't.I was talking about myself, Suzianne.

Luke 1:35 says "And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God."
