Mary Mother of Jesus Scarlet or Saint

My opponent provided no sources on his claims. By doing this his shows all his information is speculation and not provable. And since we are in a dicussion with great need of other information then sources are required. My opponent states: "The idea of Mary giving birth to a child without the needed biological process of insemination is not possible. The biology of the human race is not able to make life without the use of human Egg Cells and human Sperm Cells. " In all rational cases my opponent would be right here but this is not the case. In this case we are given means of miraculous conception. Therefore by this means all prior biological means are mute. "There has not been an account of this in the passed two thousand years because it is not possible to occur. " Again my opponent makes wild assertions without any evidence to back up his claim. His was not around two thousands years ago and I do not think anyone was. "There have been women that have lied in the past and the truth was surfaced that their pregnancy's origin was falsifiable (many are apart of religious cults). " I agree with what He says here, It is know many people are liars. But Is the Mary we are debating about a liar? He provided no proof she was. "The idea of virgin births are also old concepts used by greeks romans and even before the beginning of Judaism. Pagan religions have been copied my those who worship this concept and many others throughout all the stories of the bible. Mary could not have given birth to a child as a virgin. If my opponent would like I could give sites on the history of virgin births before christ. If he/she can disprove my claims in anyway I would gladly try to back them up as best I can. (Sorry my protocol is not proper this is my first debate on this site). " Before I respond to this claim I would like to allow my opponent to back his claims and provide the resources He is refering to. We should start this round with some fore-shadowing of the life of Mary-mother of Jesus. Her name was Mary, a form of the name Miriam, the famous sister of Moses. The name was common among Jewish women in those days. A well-known tradition says she was born in Jerusalem, the daughter of Joachim and Ann. Other early sources say Mary was born in Nazareth. There is even an ancient record that points to Sepphoris, a town a few miles from Nazareth, as her birthplace. Map (15 K gif) Wherever she was born, Mary's life most likely unfolded in the staunch Jewish settlement of Nazareth in the hills of Galilee, not far from the important caravan routes linking Egypt and Mesopotamia. The Jews there were a strong, robust people. The hill climate was dry and healthful. And though the land often lacked water and no one knew from one year to the next if enough rain would fall or if invading locusts or field mice would spoil the crops -- still, facing uncertainty only made the people of Galilee more hard-working and close-knit. Struggling for a living deepened their religious spirit. They learned you must depend on God always. The people of Nazareth had a strong Jewish faith. As God's chosen people, descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Jews believed this land was theirs, given to their ancestors whom Moses led out of Egypt. They knew by heart the deeds of kings like David and Solomon and the words of prophets like Isaiah and Elijah. Even though the Romans, with Herod's family as their puppets, now occupied Palestine, the Jews of Galilee believed God would someday send a Messiah who would free Israel from her enemies. "Now at that time Caesar Augustus issued a decree for a census of the whole world to be taken. This census -- the first -- took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria, and everyone went to his own town to be registered. So Joseph set out from the town of Nazareth in Galilee and traveled up to Judea, to the town of David called Bethlehem, since he was of David's House and line, in order to be registered together with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child. While they were there, the time came for her to have her child, and she gave birth to a Son, her first-born. She wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger because there was no room for them at the inn. After the birth of Jesus, according to St. Luke's Gospel, Mary and Joseph fulfilled what Jewish law customarily required when a child was born. Eight days later, they had the child circumcised and gave him the name Jesus. After forty days, they took him to the temple at Jerusalem to consecrate him to God. There, the old man Simeon and the old woman Anna recognized the child's extraordinary mission. Taking him into his arms, Simeon said to Mary his mother: "You see this child: he is destined for the fall and for the rising of many in Israel, destined to be a sign that is rejected -- and a sword shall pierce your own soul, too -- so that the secrets of many hearts may be laid bare. " We can hardly guess how Mary experienced the tragic days when they arrested and crucified her Son. Tradition says she stood on the road as Jesus passed by carrying his cross. When all his disciples fled, she remained with him. Helpless to do anything else, she watched her dying Son and offered her love. When he died, they took him down from the cross and placed him in her arms. She held him gently, her child of long ago. She was one of those who saw him risen from the dead. Her cries of grief turned into cries of joy as she waited in prayer with the apostles for the Holy Spirit that Jesus promised to send them. As the mother of Jesus, Mary had a special place among his followers, strengthening their faith through her own. From his cross, Jesus gave her to his church as a mother for all ages. John's Gospel, the last of the four, speaks twice of Mary. At Cana in Galilee she intercedes with her son for a newly married couple and he changes the water into wine. (Jn 2:1-12) On Calvary she stands beneath the cross at Jesus' death. (Jn 19:25-27) At Cana and on Calvary Jesus calls his mother "Woman," which early Christian tradition saw as an allusion likening her to the first woman, Eve. In God's plan, Mary, by her faith, reversed the failure of Eve and so became the new "mother of all the living. " Through the centuries the stories of Cana and Calvary have led Christians to seek Mary's intercession with her Son and to rely on her as a mother with compassion for those in need. . http://www.cptryon.org... . http://www.youtube.com... In this round I gave rebuttals are advice to my opponent. I only described the stroy of Mary. In the next round I will rebuttal my ooponent of He chooses to offer evidence of his claims. I will also provide documanted evidence that Mary in fact lived and was Jesus's mother. I will offer the many years of tridion of Mary being a virgin and mother of God manifest in the flesh. Thanks to my opponent. I look forward to the next round.
