This article by the Washington Post is totally offensive to me.

Where do I sue?

She was not sinful. God’s messenger addressed her by the unprecedented name/title Kecharitomene:
Full of Grace.

No one else in Greek-language writings,sacred or secular, before or after, was ever addressed by such an extraordinary, God-given name.

Mary was human.

The only human without sin was Christ himself.

And so do the Orthodox and other non Protestant Christians. Funny until the 16th Century no one thought otherwise.

Not necessarily: http://www.catholic.com/magazine/articles/the-case-for-marys-perpetual-virginity

Disclaimer: the author, Tim Staples, was raised so a Southern Baptist, and is a convert to Catholicism.

As for the topic: just because something awful happened to the poor lady, why should that invalidate purity or chastity as an ideal?

You are mistaken. The NT does not say one word that specifies *biological* children born to Mary and Joseph.

The terms used do not distinguish between brothers, half-brothers, step-brothers, or even cousins or other close kin.

The only OTHER human without sin was Christ Himself. And for some unspecified period of time, Adam and Eve, before the Fall.

Every liberal loathes innocence. Even in children.

Every liberal is a lying totalitarian thug.

So... it would seem that now promoting virtue and self-restraint is an insult to ‘real’ people everywhere.

Thank you Cuban for making that point. You beat me to it. Let me second that for those who are non Catholics, we Catholics believe that Mary remained ever-virgin. Remember this was not an ordinary birth, this is God’s son! Being able to be born without disturbing Mary’s virginity is really simple for God, not anything like making the Sun, the moon, the stars and you and me! Amen.

“The only OTHER human without sin was Christ Himself. And for some unspecified period of time, Adam and Eve, before the Fall.”

So Mary is sinless, like Christ?
