Did you not mention a while back that you attended Sunday school? I would assume you also read the Bible.
Mary, the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ, has been the subject of much speculation, primarily because so little is known about her. But one thing the Bible clearly indicates about Mary is that she had other children. How many children Mary had is up for speculation.
Luke 1 records Mary's conversation with the angel Gabriel, who told her she was to be the mother of God's Messiah. At that time, Mary was a young virgin engaged to be married to a man named Joseph. Some have taught that, due to the sacred nature of the virgin birth, Mary had no other children and remained a virgin throughout her life. However, Matthew 1:24â25 seems to counter that teaching and imply that Mary had other children, "When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus." The key word that tells us that Mary had other children after Jesus is until.
Until means "up to the time of." It implies that an action did occur after a prescribed pause. Matthew did not end the sentence by saying, "He did not consummate their marriage." He says, "He did not consummate their marriage until. . . ." This wording indicates that the action (of consummating the marriage) did occur after the birth of Christ. Matthew also makes a point of telling us that Joseph "took Mary home as his wife." Matthew's readers would naturally conclude that Mary became Joseph's wife in every sense of the word. There is no scriptural evidence to support the assertion that Mary remained a perpetual virgin or that she had no other children. In fact, the Bible tells us the opposite.
Mark 6:3 records people becoming angry with Jesus when He taught in His hometown. They rejected Him as a prophet and responded, "âIsn't this the carpenter? Isn't this Mary's son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren't his sisters here with us?' And they took offense at him." This passage indicates that Mary had at least seven children, including Jesus. There were at least thirty years between the time of Jesus' birth and this encounter, which allows plenty of time for other children to have joined the family as Jesus' siblings.

Yes i did attend Sunday school at one time at a very young age. But i have no memory of ever been told that. Reading the Bible, to be honest I only read a few chapters from the old testament, many years ago.
