Those silly christians are at it again

Why do christians always adopt and transmogrify (transitive verb : to change or alter greatly and often with grotesque or humorous effect) everything to try to relate to or justify their phony story of virgin birth of jesus? Here we go - a recent newsletter from our friends at Christian Anti-Communism Crusade http://www.schwarzreport.org/:

"The main body of testimony concerning the virgin birth occurs in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. However, the Old Testament predicted the Messiah’s unusual conception hundreds of years before Matthew and Luke ever wrote their Gospels.
The concept of the virgin birth of Jesus must concur with the prescribed mode of entrance granted the Messiah in the Old Testament.
The key Old Testament text is Isaiah 7:14. There may also be an allusion to the virgin conception in Genesis 3:15."

Note the use "predicted the Messiah's ... " as an absolute certainty as if no controversy exists over the original scripture's meaning.

For further reading about this supposed prediction, read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaiah_7:14. It is clear from that article that once again, those silly christians are stretching to make links that really aren't there. But then again, who started this whole monotheistic thing in the first place? Isn't it their fault that somehow it was bastardized into another major religion? Not really.... but Nobody Really Knows.

And furthermore, what the heck is it with old groups that never die. I found this group from a 1962 newspaper article and wondered if they were still around... and this is what I found. I wonder if this is like a government program - once it starts you can never get rid of it?
