Mary was a watered down, powerless version of Isis.

With your logic, if Mary is the New Testament = God's way then all women should just become spontaneously pregnant without having all that messy, sinful, evil sex! God's way is just to send some freaking messenger (he couldn't be bothered to tell her himself) to a teenager that she's going to have a baby! So - YAY!

Not many children born that way I'll wager. Your god is a weird-o.
