Project Gutenberg 2012-10-08 Public domain in the USA. 73 Annet, Peter 1693 1769 The Miraculous Conception Or, The Divinity of Jesus Christ Considered as the Foundation of the Christian Religion Produced by David Widger "The Miraculous Conception" by Peter Annet is a critical examination of the accounts of the birth of Jesus Christ as presented in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, likely written in the early 19th century. This scientific publication challenges the traditional Christian doctrine of the miraculous conception and divinity of Jesus Christ, probing the origins and authenticity of these biblical narratives. Annet seeks to shed light on the foundations of Christian faith by scrutinizing the historical and textual integrity of the accounts that underpin it. In this book, Annet highlights the discrepancies between the Gospel accounts, arguing that the story of Jesus' miraculous conception may be a later fiction created to elevate Christ’s status amid prevailing societal prejudices. He meticulously dissects both Matthew's and Luke's narratives, presenting them as conflicting and proposing that the accepted interpretations are rooted in superstition rather than solid historical basis. By drawing on various scholarly arguments, he questions the credibility of the miraculous conception and discusses the implications of such beliefs on moral reasoning and religious authority, ultimately advocating for a more rational approach to understanding these foundational religious stories.
