Someone's imagination gone wild. This is Satan's method for getting our eye's off Jesus - glorify someone else.
The excuse for this doctrine is that she had to be without in order to give birth to a son without sin. If she was conceived without sin, then her parents must have also been born without sin. How many generations back shall we go?
In Luke 1:46, we read,
"And Mary said:
My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,.."
If she was without sin, she wouldn't need a savior.
You're obviously not Catholic.
Move along.
Our Lady leads us to her Son. She tells us to "Do whatever He says". She is the gate of Heaven that leads us to Christ. "To Him through Her." And yes, she was a creature who enjoyed the salvation of God, who is not bound by time and applied the merits of Christ's passion and death to preserve Our Lady from all stain of original sin from the moment of her conception.

This is a Catholic section. I don't think you should comment on it.
Right. Her salvation, like her freedom from sin, was prefigured by God even before Christ's birth, death and resurrection.
Applying you logic in reverse, if Mary was conceived with sin, then her Son, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was also conceived with sin.
Well how nice of you to come onto a Catholic thread and bash Catholic doctrine.
Why is it I never see you on SJackson or Allouette's Jewish threads bashing Jews?
Catholics are fair game, I guess.
What about the Angel Gabriel's greeting to Mary in Luke:
"Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you."
Funny that you attempt to "correct" the thinking the original Christians (i.e. Catholics) from your perspective of cheap-after-market-Christianity (i.e. Protestantism.)
Go away, degrading the mother of Jesus will get you nowhere.
Since the IC is -- Catholic dogma insists -- a prior application of the foreseen merits of the crucified Christ, what we are really glorifying is Christ's salvific work perfectly exemplified in his mother.
You think it's Satanic to praise and celebrate the salvific work of Christ?
Catholic doctrine can be debated, but I have no idea why any Protestant would want to debate this one. You think God can't make a sinless Jewish girl? Does his omnipotence have limits, then?
