because HE was the father, not Joseph

and Mary would not call Jesus her Saviour if she was sinless

if she was sinless, she would not need a Saviour

Read your Bible, people, read your Bible...

Read yours. The Bible contains instances of hyberbole.

"For as in Adam all die," yet Enoch did not die but was taken up by God.

"In Christ all will be made alive." Does this mean universal salvation?

The Psalms say that there are no rightious men, none who seek God, none who do good. Yet Saint Joseph was a "just man" and Zechariah was "rightious."

All men have sinned -- yet Christ was fully man as He was fully God. Did He sin, or do you deny His full humanity?

Mary was saved by grace alone, as are all who are saved. The difference is, God filled Mary with grace at the singular moment of conception to render Her a fitting vessel to bear Christ.
