IMHO, Jesus Christ had to be born via the birth canal, otherwise he wouldn't have qualified as a substitute sacrifice for our sins as a human.

So, if He had been born in modern times by a C-Section, that wouldn't have counted????

MODERN???

Cesarean section has been part of human culture since ancient times and there are tales in both Western and non-Western
cultures of this procedure resulting in live mothers and offspring.

According to Greek mythology Apollo removed Asclepius, founder of the famous cult of religious medicine,
from his mother's abdomen. Numerous references to cesarean section appear in ancient Hindu, Egyptian, Grecian, Roman,
and other European folklore. Ancient Chinese etchings depict the procedure on apparently living women.

The Mischnagoth and Talmud prohibited primogeniture when twins were born by cesarean section and waived
the purification rituals for women delivered by surgery.
