The solution was to make the woman extra-special. Her blood had to be as clean as his needed to be. Thru theology, they solved the problem of the perfect sacrifice.

Even that doesn't really fix it, though; it just shifts the perceived 'problem' back one generation.

It's not a problem for me in the first place, since I reject the concept of original sin. So yeah, both Mary and Jesus were born without sin, but so was I and so were you.

If original sin doesn’t exist, then why did Jesus come at all?
