the Fathers of the Church compared to light passing through glass without breaking it. Fr. Geiger quoted the fourth century St. Augustine on the matter saying. "That same power which brought the body of the young man through closed doors, brought the body of the infant forth from the inviolate womb of the mother."

How on Earth would the "Fathers Of The Church" know whether or not Mary screamed. Were they there? Did they peer into her 'inviolate womb' to check things out? Did anyone there peer into Marys womb?

What evidence could St. Augustine possibly have had four centuries later that Marys womb was 'inviolate'?

It's precisely this kind of silliness which keeps me away from Churches.

It's not enough that Jesus healed the sick, gave sight to the blind, and raised the dead. That just ain't good enough. Oh no, his mother had to have an 'inviolate womb'.
