Luke 1:35
Craig:
My appologies Micah, I guess I don't believe it either. I always thought it was the same as the virgin birth. You can tell I'm not catholic.

Put the Immaculate Conception right in there with the rest of Babylon bunk.

The Immaculate Conception is a Catholic doctrine, and has nothing to do with whether Jesus' mother Mary was a virgin at conception OR that Mary's mother was a virgin at Mary's conception.
What the doctrine proposes is that Mary was conceived WITHOUT ORIGINAL SIN. In other words, Mary was born a SINLESS person. Whereas David says that he was "conceived in sin."
Catholics teach that Mary was "immaculately conceived" WITHOUT sin. Like most Christian doctrines, it is false.

Wow, Thanks to Kat for that email from Ray about Immaculate Conception. My best friend was Catholic. I never asked her, what the meaning to Immaculate Conception is. Course, I grew up Lutheran and they use to think there believes were so different. They taught trinity there and I never understood it. I though Immaculate Conception meant she was just a virgin not sin free. Amazing, how long I believed this stuff in ingorance. But, I did not know that all those times spent in different churches was going to lead me out of them. So, today I am no longer ingorant about Immaculate Conception. All, I can remember I would ask my friend why are the saying everything in Latin. I went a few times with her. I asked her how she knew what they were saying. I also, asked her why they did not read there Bibles. She told me the Pope and Bishops and so forth taught the Priest how to understand the Bible, and they told them the meaning. I never liked that.
Well, the blindness just keeps changing to light. This post has helped me undestand alot. I can say I don't beleive in the Immaculate Conception either. No, human is sin free. It really goes to show you how blind we are till we receive the truth.
In His Love,
Marlene
