If the RC version of perpetual virginity is true...Poor Joseph!

Maybe; maybe not.

The 'story' goes that Mary was a perpetual VIRGIN; NOT that she never had, ahem, sex.

As they hold that Jesus was sitting before them while being digested in their stomach to give spiritual life, which is similar to some forms of cannibalism , in which it is said pagans would eat the flesh of others as a means of imbibing their life energy, then i suppose they could argue for this miracle, as some argue her hymen was not broken by birth.

False premise. God can’t do everything, so that argument fails.

He can do whatever He wants, He is God.

False premise. God cannot do whatever He wants.

Scripture tells us that He cannot change, He cannot lie, and He cannot deny Himself.

Considering that “temptation” is a sin...

Temptation is NOT a sin. Temptation is just temptation. Giving in to it is a sin.

True; but we also have THIS teaching:

Matthew 5:28

But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

You know what I mean. I was not talking about His make-up.

Aw, c’mon. I was just having fun with that whole space time continuum thing. Frankly, if my people had never figured it out, I never could have gotten to your planet in the first place.
