don't forget the part where she got her fiance/husband totally snookered and/or dosed with magic mushrooms or something; and then appeared to him pretending to be an angel telling him to shut the fuck up and go with it.
(or maybe she got a friend to be the angel?)
Edit: also, can we talk about how if the story is real... there was no chance that Mary could give meaningful consent?
For religion rape is a feature not a bug
Well, the whole virgin Mary is later stuff. Joseph was the father probably. If there was any Jesus at all - the "objective" historical mentions we get are not really very first-hand, so it's all kind of clouded.
So, like, To go with more modern names, it'd be like some guy named Michael having a kid they named Braiden. In that particular time and place Yoseph was a super common name; as was Yeshua.
Which suggests there were many, many people named "Yeshua Bar Yoseph" which is part of the reason we have "Yeshua of Nazareth"
In fact, there was probably more than one Yeshua bar Yoseph from Nazareth, even if it was a small town. just like how there's Braiden, Brayden, Braeden, Braidyn. It's probably a good thing I'd never have kids because I'd name them all Zathras
