That does make sense that she would need to be sinless. If Jesus was also fully human, how could a sinner partake in raising him? I would have to agree with the church.Another point, this Holy Mystery shows the most incredible virtue of humility, Christ obedient to His Mother; God obedient to His creature. A thought to ponder upon forever!

You think Jesus was obedient to Mary when he ran off and she couldn't find him for a few days???
Quite a fairytale that has evolved...

Mary was full of grace. She gave a perfect “yes”. She had to give a perfect yes. After all she was the mother of Jesus who was sinless in his divine human nature.
