Why is it so important to Christians that Mary had to be a virgin?
Was it just a marketing idea for a more dramatic touch?

Jesus had to be born without inheriting the sin nature... Jesus was a creation of the Holy Spirit who caused the start of Jesus life in Mary... I don't know if Mary had to be a virgin or not.. I am sure The Holy Spirit could have caused Mary to become pregnant either case..
I would say it was important to establish that Jesus had no genetic human dad.. So as to show that His actual Father was God...
So it was not done this way for any dramatic touch.. It was just to establish that no human man fathered Jesus.. That Jesus was born never inheriting the sin nature of humans.. He was without sins..
