A member questioned for details re: the one known case of virgin birth.  
Yet it is not factually noted that a virgin birth in humans had/has occured.  
Other than a group of people who choose to BELLIEVE it happend we have  
no proof. Rare indeed. Has it ever happened? Your personal beliefs aside.

We have more proof for the virgin birth of Christ, as far as “proof” goes, as we have for the siege of Alesia.
