You say you are a christian, and yet you deny what the book says. It says in clear terms that jesus had a brother, and other siblings. You a just a hypocrite that's all.
I'm not Catholic, and don't necessarily believe what John said, but I believe that some who do believe that have pointed to evidence which suggests that Joseph may have been quite a bit older than Mary when they got married, so he might reasonably have had other children from a previous marriage who are the ones referred to as Jesus's siblings.
