I also have always failed to understand how her “perpetual virginity” was so “holy”. If so, why didn’t she just remain single rather than dishonor her husband and her marriage vows.

Another thing I mulled around in my head during my Catholic school years.

Great point!

I'm convinced a lot of this extra Biblical stuff is the result of pressure to mainstream Christianity in a pagan world. Once it got started it just kept growing.

Christianity is unique. Our faith is the only faith that has a Savior. We don't need to mainstream anything. We just need to preach Christ Crucified.
