Here's what Bill said:
If you didn’t know the first thing about Christianity and somebody told you, for the first time, this story that God is all powerful, better than us in any way. But he has a son. He’s a single parent. And he tells the son, ’Son, you’re going on a suicide mission down to Earth. Don’t worry. They can’t kill you because you’re really me. so here’s the plan. I, God the Father, wink wink, I’ll come down to Earth first. Easy because we’re two people. God the Father, God the son.. And I’ll see if I can’t find a Palestinian woman to impregnate so she can give birth to you. I mean ME. Oh, you know what I mean!’ The silliest story I’ve ever heard.
And here's my alternative theory on how this could all make sense. God, being a rather brilliant biologist (hey, he has to be, with all the intelligent codes of DNA that he wrote to create all the species, see My version of the intelligent design), wanted to send Jesus to the world. He did not really want to do the unpleasant job he had in mind for Jesus. However, being the ultimate narcissist at the same time, he cannot imagine sharing the credit with anyone else. Therefore, he cloned himself, created one cell with his genome and artificially implanted the cell into Virgin Mary's womb. In the sense that he created Jesus out of himself, he is the father. But since they are clones, Jesus is also God himself. Mary gave birth to Jesus, so she was his mother. But she was certainly a virgin even after giving birth to Jesus! And Jesus did not have one bit of her genes. It makes perfect sense.
BTW, the most efficient clonist I have known of is described in Chinese mythology. The Monkey King, who later became the "Buddha who is utterly victorious in Battle" (斗战胜佛), can instantly create thousands of his clones from his body hair.
