ABSOLUTELY INDEED.
Oh, I think the magicsterical decreed that Mary’s parents had a magical sinless uhhhhh union . . . .
the power-mongering elitest bureaucratic political magicstericals in the Vatican seem to love to decree all kinds of UNBIBLICAL magical things that give them more power and influence over the sheeple. All the more so when they can make more money off such.
Maybe it’s just me, or don’t you think that if Mary herself was immaculately conceived, Jesus Christ would have known this? And allowed that woman of the company, in Luke 11:27-28 to honor and worship her?
Your foaming-at-the-mouth post contains a big, fat, hateful lie, and I’m calling you on it.
Mary’s parents did not have a “magical” union. They had a normal marital union, and their little girl was preserved by a singular grace of Almighty God from all stain of original sin, in view of, and in anticipation of, her Son’s merits on the Cross at Calvary.
I don’t expect you at this point to be polite or respectful, but don’t tell lies about Catholic teaching or equate the grace of God with “magic”. It’s no such thing.
You got one part right, though. Their marital union was sinless and blessed by God. Nothing sinful about normal marital relations.
As far as mama and papa are4 concerned, the story says the only thing special about Mary's birth was that she, like my daughter, came after much hope, much sorrow. Her parents may have been blessed with many graces but they were not sinless and their union was more (and no less) sinless than that of any chaste and pious married couple.
