I don't know that I quite understand what you're saying, lol. Do you mean that it's bad to assume?
In terms of Lillith, that's a goddess connected with....Wicca? (I don't really know....I have a book all about this kind of stuff...but she's a pagan god, or something like that. So don't eat me if I'm wrong). People have twisted the Word of God in many ways.
But assuming that Adam had another wife and assuming that Mary or Joseph were married other times is different. It was not uncommon for a man who had lost his wife to be re-married, and vice versa. That is simply where the assumption is found, within historical and culteral context. It's nothing that changed the Word of God. Whether Mary or Joseph got married again is irrelevant to Jesus' divine birth, which is clearly the most important factor in everything.

I recently discovered the same thing, but what I can't help but wonder is if Jesus had some of Mary's genes, or were all his created by God, with no genetic relationship evident between him and his mother, and in that case, between his siblings? Or even relationship evidence with joseph???

Only Jesus was the one that was created by God. Hence the whole "Mary the virgin" thing is about. And I have a book that talks about the whole life of Jesus. It's called The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived.

when he said brothers and sisters, i think he means brothers and sisters of the church kind of thing. but he did have real brothers and sisters. half siblings that is. since joseph was only his earthly father and not the one who gave birth to him.

Yep, Jesus had brothers and sisters. They were technically half, but Jesus never calls them half. And yes he had cousins as well. I think the neater concept is this: God the Father (who is a virgin) has the Holy Spirit (who is a virgin) impregnate Mary (a human, who is a virgin) who had Jesus (who was and is a virgin) So, it is safe to say, we were saved by a virgin!

I mean come on, marry wouldn't stay a virgin her whole life! would YOU?? xp haha. good point. Although Marry could've been soo socked that she had a baby without even getting married. It is possible that she decided that HIM is enough.
