I believe in the birth of Christ and have accepted him as my personal savior. Not doubting, but can it be explained in scientific terms how a woman can be impregnated by a spiritual being without sexual intercourse?
Pause to consider who it was that created science.
And having come in, the angel said to her, “Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!” But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was. Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS. He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David. And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there will be no end.” Then Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I do not know a man?” And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God. Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren. For with God nothing will be impossible.” Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.
is there a scientific term for “miracle?”

You say you are not doubting...but your post virtually reeks of doubt.
Where is your faith? Hiding behind you science?
Faith came a long time before science. LOL!
I assume that by “science” you mean “events reproducible in multiple experiments.” As far as I know, there has not been another experiment of this kind since the conception of Jesus.
The term for “believing in Jesus, but He was a regular human man” is “Arian.”
The Lord can miraculously shrink a tumor or heal an infection in the body. In fact, if He hadn’t healed us of a host of infections in our lifetimes, we would have died many years ago. The first common cold would have killed us. Cut your finger. Observe how elegantly it heals; it makes its own band-aid, in fact. Then a few days later, it sheds the band-aid. Without this, the first cut we got would have killed us. Scientific; yes. Miracles; yes. We put way too much emphasis on sexual intercourse when spiritually things occur of a miraculous nature within our bodies all the time no thanks to sex. I don’t think insemination would be too difficult with the Spirit.
