Why would the creator of the universe who could create people at whom even bother to magically impregnate ("immaculate" conception) some random farm girl?

The whole concept is pretty ridiculous

So he could sacrifice himself to himself to serve as a loophole for rules that he created to save everybody from what he would do to them if they didn't believe it happened.

Duh.

Really? You read everything up to that point and that is the thing that stuck out the most?

Why are you only just now asking this question, you could've asked that back in origin when God somehow needed a rib to make Eve.

If she was so perfect why was she a farm girl?

because literally everyone at the time was a ******* farmer
about 10% of people weren't
and of those 10%, another 30% were royalty and clergy

Christianfag here. Obviously there's the whole "dying on the cross" thing for sins, but that could have been accomplished via other means. The point of being born was so that God could make clear to us that he wants to be near to us. He doesn't stick us with ****** situations and then set himself apart from it and be like "lol, sucks to be you, deal with it". He came down and felt all the pain and suffering and loss we feel, to show us that he cares. Including the struggles of growing up in a poor family, learning to become an adult, and all that stuff.

Well the idea is to send Jesus down to suffer the same way we do because he is in the same boat when it comes to going to earth in the first place to get a body. He basically suffered the same way everyone else did and diddnt commit a single sin despite the fact that he was of the lowest class. This also set up for his sacrifice he made to let us return to heaven. Only a person with a perfect love of everybody could make that sacrifice and so he did.

Because it was designed to protect a reproductive strategy endemic to humans: cuckoldry.

It hasn't escaped my notice that in reality, Joseph is a cuck who raises the child of the ultimate alpha male and Mary is essentially a whore. Joseph convinces himself to look after Jesus since he represents a stronger genetic specimen then he'll ever produce himself.

This is why you still can't get paternity tests without the consent of the mother in many Western Christian countries. Cuckoldry is estimated at 10% in the UK.

Furthermore, God as the ultimate alpha male appeals to women and so they choose to serve him by having children for god. Men are all betas in service to god and taught to obey his commandments - which they do, since the women are more uptight about religion and keen to adhere to it then the men. So the men do it more for pussy than anything and the women do it because god is greater than any man they could ever meet.

It's sorta a psychological masturbation that tickles women in all the right ways and allows more men to breed instead of being left out like in a more polygamous society. Think of it like hijacking the worst aspects of our sexual programming for the sake of maintaining civilization by socializing pussy in the market.

Again, it's just alpha/beta stuff. There's more to say about the nature of truth and philosophy, but that's what the virgin birth is about.

I love this perspective, by the by.
