And keep in mind that the Immaculate Conception and Assumption of the Blessed Mother are things that JESUS DID, not Mary.

There's a reason John didn't tell us the other signs that Jesus performed...And that's because they were nothing that we needed to know for our salvation...

If there was an Immaculate Conception and Assumption of Mary, Jesus would have told us...And since He didn't, your religion is just making it up...

There's NOTHING in the Gospel of Saint John at all about the Virgin Birth.

The fact that the Nestorian interpretation of Scripture denies this, does not mean that the Church made it up.

Ah, so you now can read minds of St. John and others? Also, so you say it's ok for something not to be in the bible because they were not needed for our salvation? the IC and Assumption are not necessary for our salvation -- Church teaching is that salvation came from Jesus Christ's sacrifice.
