The Huffington Post reports this is an alternate take on the traditional bible story.
Canadians on Thursday night were able to get into the Christmas spirit with a raunchier version of the birth of Jesus on "A Russell Peters Christmas Special." Former "Baywatch" star and model Pamela Anderson was the focal point of one important sketch, playing a Virgin Mary whose virgin credentials -- and thusly Jesus's claim to holy lineage -- was drawn into question.

I won’t comment on the TV special because I haven’t seen it. From this video the sexual innuendo surrounding Pamela Anderson as a supposed virgin is obvious. I can see where some Christians, especially Roman Catholics, can be very offended by it.
However, it is Biblically accurate in a sense because when Mary became pregnant before marrying Joseph it was a scandalous thing. Joseph was humiliated and didn’t want to go through with the marriage. It wasn’t until an angel of the Lord told Joseph that Mary conceived a child by the Holy Spirit and he should be called Jesus, that Joseph became convinced.
But, I do want to know when are we gonna see a comedy about Mohammad and the birth of Islam? Christianity is an easy target because people are envious of what we have achieved in this world. The United States was founded by Christians and ALWAYS will be a majority Christian country. And it was only because we’re blessed by God that a ragtag bunch of colonists was able to defeat the greatest military power in the world and won our independence. But, for Jesus, we exist!
P.S. The skit does acknowledge Jesus as the Savior of the world. That’s a lot more than Barack Obama did lighting up the Washington Christmas tree.
