So you refute the very words of Christ? I am blessed — I have salvation! I’m blessed daily: with life, health, the love of my family!
No wonder the RCC has such issues! You can’t read the plain and simple words that are before you, but you take the same words and try to twist them into something they’re not. Did the angel say, “Mary, generations shall call you sinless”? NO. Blessed does not equal sinlessness.
Once again, and as before: please show me in scripture where Mary is said to have been born without original sin; where she remains virginal...
Scripture? Please?

Where does scripture say, “Mary sinned”.
Two words. Should be simple enough because you’ve insisted that Scripture backs you up. I honestly don’t see it.
The only argument you’ve got is from Paul who states that ‘All have sinned and fallen short of the law’. Which doesn’t answer the question. Was Paul asked, “did Mary sin?” No. He was answering an entirely different question. Does he mean to say, “All who are alive today have sinned and fallen short of the Law”, or “All who have ever existed in the history of mankind have sinned and fallen short of the Law”.
Does he digress into a discussion of Enoch, and Elijah? No, nothing of the sort. The very next statement confirms, he is saying that we all require salvation (true of Mary), and that salvation comes from Christ Jesus.
