You still do not understand “virgin birth”,

Unless you have another definition of "virgin", I think we've agreed it means, in this case, that Mary became pregnant through the actions of the Holy Spirit.

just like your opinions and misunderstandings of the teachings of the Catholic Church as preached verbally by Jesus Christ and the apostles and later written in the books of the Bible.

Well, for starters, the Immaculate Conception wasn't preached by anyone in the Bible, nor were the Assumption, Mary as "mother of God", Mary as co-redemptrix, Mary as advocatrix, infant baptism, the Mass in only Latin, the Mass, mandatory days of obligation, purgatory, etc. In fact, you will not find a lot of Roman Catholic teachings in the books of the Bible.

In addition, no evidence that any Apostle ever believed or taught any of that paganism.
