I bet they used different names for each Mary. "Mary" probably just meant something like "woman".

Your gravelly voice makes me think you've been attacked many times in your life (maybe by your parents?) regarding your beliefs, and you're struggling to state them anyway.

She didn't, but she slept with him. I think most Christians believe that. God being the father of Jesus is poetic. It's a spiritual statement, not a statement that Jesus, the human being, wasn't born of two human parents.

Who doesn't?

Not all Christians interpret things the same way. Most Christians know that Joseph WAS the biological father of Jesus. That seems pretty obvious.

@ΓιάννηςΑρσενιάδης LOL. There are different interpretations of what happened. Personally, I think, and so do many others, that Jesus was born as a human by two human parents. So there.

@random.reader "Actually", huh? All names have some meaning, whether forgotten or not. "We know this because..." LOL. Who do you think you are? That's not even logical. So what if people don't agree on the meaning. That doesn't mean there wasn't a meaning. Also, what does "of the times" mean? What specific time period and what specific region? This is a big world with a long history, pal.

@random.reader Well, you're going to have to be more specific if you say things as if they are facts. If you're going to be ranking the popularity of a particular name, then be a little more specific. What do you mean by "the time, place and culture of Jesus and his recent ancestors"? That's pretty vague. How long of a time are we talking about? A decade? A century? Three centuries? And what about place? Bethleham? Jerusalem? The whole east coast of the Mediterranean? What is now Israel? What is now the Middle East? Just because we today don't know the meaning of a particular name, doesn't mean it didn't have one. Names don't just pop out of nowhere, meaningless.

It probably didn't have much meaning other than maybe "woman", just an automatic tag to someone's name. They were probably all known be separate names.

Remember that the King James version was a work done by several people, MUCH later than the books were originally written. Of course it was translated too, not in the original languages written, nor the language that Jesus himself spoke. Be careful whenever reading the King James Version.

Nobody really believes Jesus was born December 25th, you dork. That's just a date chosen to celebrate his birth. Who doesn't know that? Also, it's very well-known that there were already pagan festivals at that time of the year in Europe, and Christmas co-opted them. So what? That doesn't make anyone less or more of a Christian. Jesus wasn't about specific dates and holidays. Read various bibles and think about the underlying messages, not what you see just at first blush.

We're all divine and we're all God. We are all vessels. Jesus was Jewish. That's obvious. You'd have to be a moron to believe otherwise.
