“VATICAN CITY, June 23 (Reuters) - The Vatican on Tuesday reaffirmed a long-standing rule that only an ordained priest or deacon can give a sermon at a Catholic mass, rejecting a request from German bishops to broaden the practice and allow sermons by women or other laypeople.”

the Bible never mentions her age
Which Bible? Which translation, which council? Because most of the stuff in “the Bible” changes with every translation. An example would be the relatively recent changes to condemn homosexuality when originally they were condemning the Roman practice of pederasty.
Anyway, first century Jewish girls were usually betrothed during or immediately after puberty and as she was already promised to Joseph according to one gospel she would have been between 12 and 16. It’s possible she was an outlier but much more likely if she did exist she was pregnant around 14.
read the original greek and hebrew at this point if you hate translations this much
You are so close to the point. It’s all made up bro. It’s fiction.
it isnt
proof?
You can’t prove a negative. You’re the one that claims god exists, where’s your empirical evidence? Where’s your proof? Repeatable, testable proof? As it is there’s no evidence whatsoever of any deity of any kind so there’s no reason to believe they’d exist. You say they do, that’s your claim, now prove it. Maybe learn some rhetoric and logic first so you can actually have a legitimate good faith discussion.
Genesis 1:3 And God said, “Let there be light.” And light became.
how did the Apostle John and the author of Genesis know thay light can be created from matter more than a thousand years before it was proven via colliders?
John 1:4 Life was in Him, and Life was the light of men.
They didn’t? Nothing in that passage implies anything scientific or anything even about the nature of light and the relationship between matter and energy.
the Bible is in parables
and yes, it does? Light can create, and God is the light of all men, God is the creator of all men, and God also illuminates our lives in a special way
Ok if that’s your proof then I can use quotes from the Hobbit to prove dragons are real.
if tolkien predicted particle physics 2000+ years ago before modern colliders I would say he has a point
