...immaculate conception...did not the angel address her as "full of grace"? sounds sinless to me

Sounds more like you're wrong. There is nothing in Scripture that says that being full of grace equates to sinlessness.

...blessed art thou among women...kind of places her above other women wouldn't you say???

No, because the angel said among women, not above women.

"Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed." Luke 1:48

Where else and about whom else is this written in Scripture?

Wrong again. You'd think that after having been exposed for being such a poor student of Scripture, you'd stop sticking your foot in your mouth. However, you are indeed a glutton for punishment.

"And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we saw His glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." John 1:14

"I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel." Genesis 3:15

"And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women." Luke 1:28

If you are full of grace, then you have no room for sin in your life.

Wintertime would you care to chime in here to straighten out one of your sycophants
