'It seems to me that few on this thread have an understanding of the theological implications of the dogma that God somehow cleansed Mary of all of her sins and made her immaculate from the moment of her birth. If God could do that with her, then He could do that with someone else....Roman Catholic Mariology, as it is understood by Protestants and as it is commonly presented... presents some very serious theological problems for Protestants.'

Maybe St. Louis De Montfort's writings can help (they Did for Pope JPII)...

'The Spirituality of St. Louis Marie De Montfort'

and...

'Mary's Role in Salvation History - According to St. Louis Mary Grignion de Montfort'... Rev. Patrick Gaffney, S.M.M.
