Ouch! Mary was not 'used' by God. The Creator of the Universe asked her permission. She might just as easily have said No.
Oh? Somehow I've missed that part. Can you show it to me??
Luke 1:28-39
28. The angel went to her and said, "Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you."
29. Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
30. But the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God.
31. You will be with child and give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus.
32. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David,
33. and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever; his kingdom will never end."
34. "How will this be," Mary asked the angel, "since I am a virgin?"
35. The angel answered, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.
36. Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be barren is in her sixth month.
37. For nothing is impossible with God."
38. "I am the Lord's servant," Mary answered. "May it be to me as you have said." Then the angel left her.
Thank you, Elsie, for posting that beautiful text of the Immaculate Conception.
"I am the Lord's servant," Mary answered. "May it be to me as you have said."
This is Mary's fiat. She had the option to say no. In total trust, she gave her assent.
