For the record, I'm a Catholic Scientist. Don't know if that's relevant to everyone, but there it is anyway.
I've pondered the idea that the Immaculate Conception might have come about through a biological process that manifested in the womb of the Virgin Mary.

FlyersFan was correct, and I immediately saw my error when he mentioned Mary.

I believe this is celebrated on Dec. 8th, but the true die-hards will have to correct me.

The Pagan Origins of Christ and Christianity
At the time of the life or recorded appearance of Jesus of Nazareth, and for some centuries before, the Mediterranean and neighboring world had been the scene of a vast number of pagan creeds and rituals. There were Temples without end dedicated to gods like Apollo or Dionysus among the Greeks, Hercules among the Romans, Mithra among the Persians, Adonis and Attis in Syria and Phrygia, Osiris and Isis and Horus in Egypt, Baal and Astarte among the Babylonians and Carthaginians, and so forth...And an extraordinarily interesting fact, for us, is that notwithstanding great geographical distances and racial differences between the adherents of these various cults, as well as differences in the details of their services, the general outlines of their creeds and ceremonials were - if not identical - so markedly similar as we find them...I may say roughly that of all or nearly all the deities above-mentioned it was said and believed that:
They were born on or very near our Christmas Day
They were born of a Virgin-Mother
And in a Cave or Underground Chamber
They led a life of toil for Mankind
And were called by the names of Light-bringer, Healer, Mediator, Savior, Deliverer
They were however vanquished by the Powers of Darkness
And descended into Hell or the Underworld
They rose again from the dead, and became the pioneers of mankind to the Heavenly world
They founded Communions of Saints, and Churches into which disciples were received by Baptism
And they were commemorated by Eucharistic meals
WOW!
What a Coincidence!?!
Could it be, that Christmas was STOLEN?
OMG?

She could not have been a reptilian because she did not exist. Neither did Jesus and nor does God. Yup, no Jesus, no Mary and definitely no God.

It's the only logical conclusion, either that or she was a giant earthworm, and that would just be rediculous.
And saying that the Virgin Mary was a reptilian isn't ridiculous?
Seriously .. the metaphysical explaination of God sending His Son into the world to save us is MUCH MORE credible than Mary being a reptile.
