The short answer is a simple
"YES!"
Is this an example of the twisted interpretation of scripture which you call "research" based on your own words:

In fact, the research on the Virgin Birth question is something that I have only done in the last two years. I settled in and let the chips fall where they may, using the approach for research as described in my blog. My method is to try to wipe my mind clean, ignore the commentary of ALL modern authors, and do the research myself. It is hard to do, but the method is important for me. No longer will I take some MOTA's word as fact, Lee's or anyone else's.

Sorry
Timotheist, this sounds like a hyper-extreme reaction to Lee-ism. A little disingenuous wouldn't you say? Especially since the Acts clearly records that the two died because they lied to God.
Methinks that you don't have a problem with the Bible record or the apostles, but with God Himself. Be careful!
