Not to answer for @mitchellmckain, but sperm are motile and sometimes pregnancy happens from uh…extreme messing around. Although the argument is good that the word used in Isaiah is defined as just “young unmarried woman”
Truthfully, I accept the virgin part, but it would not up-end my faith if I were wrong. I sort of think the verse about Adam and Jesus being the second Adam may suggest a new creative action as well, but that is speculation. The whole idea of Jesus’ DNA sequence is sort of unsettling to consider.
