I mean, I'm not sure that _many_ would argue that. Most people would either take the view that Jesus had a human father, or that a miracle was involved. If nothing else, if he'd come about by this pathway, he'd be XX, which you'd think would have merited a mention in the Bible.

(It isn't totally unknown for XX people to be phenotypically male, and it'd fit with him having no kids, but really this seems like a needlessly complicated backstory for Jesus.)
