12∞ · Question 2.1.2
Do I have to believe the virgin birth literally?
No. Matthew and Luke tell it; Mark, John, and Paul never mention it, so the earliest Christians could plainly follow Jesus without it.
From the book 12∞ Twelve to Infinity by D.R. Davenport. The full answer is free to read with an iBelieve account.
