It most certainly is, thanks!
Of course these are and probably will remain forever speculations that compete with other speculations that are pushed heavily by christian churches, but I was now able to find a few articles that offer better explanations for the nonsense of "immaculate conception":
- Several claim that Mary did indeed work as a temple prostitute (or rather temple virgin) right until she got married to Joseph.
- Both such temples and the idea of virgin conception were nothing new at the time, not to Jews, not to other religions.
- Original bible texts don't even claim virginity for Mary; the word is "almah" which just means young woman.
Such dirty thought was pushed out pretty soon, or transfered to Mary Magdalene. I'm not sure who went full patriarchy & misogyny (not saying Jews weren't that at the time, but I get the impression they looked at such things more openly) first, but I suspect the turncoat Saulus/Paulus once again.
