Hmmmmm.... firstly, you cannot read the gospels as, er, gospel. Thomas Acquinas, especially, got his knickers in a knot over the virgin birth. Actually, Mary was more likely to have either had consensual relations or been raped by a Roman soldier. The true hero of the nativity story is Joseph. He saved Mary from certain stoning for adultery.
Think on this: Jesus was a Jew, a rabbi. It was most unlikely for rabbis of that age NOT to be married.
There is speculation that his first miracle (turning water into wine) was AT HIS OWN WEDDING.
Also, that Mary Magdalene was his wife, not a prostitute, and that she (and her power) got written out of the gospels at a later date.
The Nicene Creed is a political document, agreed at the Council of Nicea.
By the way, I am a history graduate, not a religious nut. When we got to the part of our syllabus which covered religion I thought, yawn, prepare to be bored. It was the most fascinating part. Religion, control over religion = money and POWER.
PS even then and this was before all the right-on hoo haa, Mohammed came over as a disgusting deeply unholy human being. When he preached, he converted about 100 people, mostly women and slaves. Then he made it a political movement (dar-al-Islam, dar-al-Harb) waging war and killing people who didn't agree with him, then claiming he was doing God's work, is when that monotheism spread. Let's see if this gets censored. It is fine to write dispassionately on, eg, the Nicene Creed and Mary, but not on the other faith. Dispassionate reporting of facts not allowed!
