Carry out your thinking a little further.  If being born of a virgin had to 
do with keeping him separate from a sinful flesh, then why not just create 
him from the dust of the ground like the first Adam?  I say that he was born 
of humanity so that he would be human.  The question is not why he was born 
without any physical relationship to Joseph, but why he was born with a 
physical relationship to Mary, David, Abraham, Noah, and Adam.  He was born 
this way so that he could TRIUMPH over sin in the flesh.  If there was no 
sin in his flesh, then there would be no triumph, no victory over sin.

Peace be with you.
