>>Which is exactly what Catholics believe and have been insisting on.<<

That is good. I just got the feeling that a few people seemed to think it was the other way around. My wife is from a very devout catholic family. None of them, to the best of my knowledge, believe that Mary was perfect, or that she never had sex with Joseph, etc. But I’ve come across a weird sect here at FR that does actually believe this. I was blown away when I first heard it. It took several posts before I realized the guy was not pulling my leg.

Actually, Mary's sinlessness and Perpetual Virginity are doctrines of Western Church and beliefs (though not defined as doctrines) of the Eastern Church. That's not what the original question was about.
