So the Holy Spirit could not have caused Mary to conceive?
Jude 1, 6 & 7.
And the angels who did not stay within their own domain but abandoned their proper dwelling— these He has kept in eternal chains under darkness, bound for judgment on that great day. In like manner, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, who indulged in sexual immorality and pursued strange flesh, are on display as an example of those who sustain the punishment of eternal fire.…
Interesting comparison between sexually impure Sodom and the the angels that sinned. It could be inferred that the angels' sin was sexual in nature.

The two things have nothing to do with each other than they are used as examples of judgment upon the ungodly. Let's apply an honest rule and note that Sodom does appear after the angels verse in 2 Peter. Are you willing to make the same comparison as in Jude?
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; 2 Peter 2:4-6
We will have physical bodies as Jesus Christ. In the resurrection, his is flesh and bones. In Christ is a spiritual reference of our spiritual condition.
You must take "giants" as a metaphor, even the giant's bed that was 15 feet long and some 9 feet wide. How about, "we were like grasshoppers in their sight." Another metaphor.

I know where he is getting his definitions from. As with other "definitions" he has given here, he just makes things up as he goes along.
Anyhow, of course, you are correct in what you stated here. In God's eyes, and not just in man's eyes, or not just "on the books," they were married. Good luck trying to get him to admit it.

Do you know what "synonymous" means?
Do you know what "procreation" means?
What about married couples who never procreate?
Are they not married in God's eyes?
What about Zacharias and Elisabeth?
Luk 1:5
There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
Luk 1:6
And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Luk 1:7
And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
Zacharias and HIS WIFE Elisabeth were well stricken in years until the time came that they procreated.
Was Luke in error when he called Elisabeth HIS (Zacharias') WIFE prior to her conception (Luke 1:24)?
I mean, according to your assertion, Zacharias and Elisabeth were not married until John the Baptist was conceived and born because marriage and procreation are allegedly synonymous.
Will you continue to claim that your assertion is representative of knowledge and reason?
