Is God considered a rapist if He sent the Holy Spirit to do His dirty work (re. impregnating Mary)?

I mean He didn't do the "dirty dead" Himself.

Update:

Oops, I meant "dirty deed". Thank you Prophecy Nut.

    According to Mary Daly, yes, but Mary Daly is a bit odd.

    To me, there is completely one God, the father (a million Corinthians 8:6, John 17:a million-3), and one Lord Jesus Christ, who's the Son of the father (Ephesians 4:5-6, 2 John a million:3). God, the father, is a Spirit, and he's Holy (John 4:23-24, John 17:11)! The comforter (holy spirit/ghost, spirit of fact) is God's present given to us after Jesus became into glorified (Luke 11:thirteen, John 7:39, a million John 4:thirteen, Acts 19:a million-6, Acts 10:34-40 8). This Spirit got here forth from the father (John 15:26), and isn't any longer a separate Spirit or yet another God (Mark 12:29-30, a million Corinthians 8:6), because of the fact God is one, and there is completely one God. Jesus Christ taught that his God, it rather is the father, became into the single actual God purely (John 17:a million-3, Mark 12:29-30, Revelations 3:11-12), and that we would desire to continuously love him with all our hearts. Apostles additionally agreed with him. (2 John a million:3, Acts 3:thirteen, Romans 15:6, 2 Corinthians 11:31, Ephesians a million:3, Ephesians a million:17, Philippians 2:9-11, Acts 2:22-24, Acts 17:30-31, a million Thessalonians a million:a million, a million Timothy a million:2, a million Peter a million:a million-3, Jude a million:a million )

    Doing the 'dirty dead' could only be performed the low life of the underworld. The Holy Spirit had subjected Mary to carry Jesus in order to save us after we 'die'.

    Source(s): He died so that we can live forever.

    No. It was consensual.

    Luke 1:34-38 (KJV)

    34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

    35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

    36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

    37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.

    38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

    Source(s): Bible.

    This is why we need to be careful with Anthropomorphisms.

    You should consider asking an actual rape victim what the experience was like, and then see if you can find any comparable experiences in the Gospels.

    It's obvious you don't understand the bible. If you did you would know that God and the holy spirit are one and the same.

    God first sent an angel to explain to Mary what He wished to do, and to obtain her permission. Nothing happened until Mary said "let it be done unto me according to your word". So first of all, what occurred was completely consensual; and second, no sexual act occurred.
