Do you think God would place Him in an "impure vessel?"

Yet Jesus walked on the ground, ate food, drank water, wore clothes, all like human men. That didn't detract from His Godliness.

The holy mystery of God lies in the Trinity, not in the peripherals, however blessed they may be.

Largely true, but I think some of the "peripherals," as you put it, matter though. Your point is well-taken, but aren't you detracting from the Mystery of the Incarnation by denying the means He used to come into ther world?
