For non Catholics it's not a big issue...It doesn't change the fact that ALL of the living creation commits sin...
For Catholics on the other hand, the issue is huge since believing one of your two positions can eliminate Mary being the mother of God, being sinless and the whole shebang...
The scriptures of God gives the answer...You guys aren't big on scripture...You get your interpretation of scripture from your 'Church' and your 'Church' doesn't even comment on most of the scriptures while telling you not to go outside of what your religion teaches...
So you guys are left in the dark concerning what God has to say to his church...
When we pull up scripture to explain these things, you are taught to say, 'It's only your opinion'...
That's why, My tiny little brain does not have the answers.
HMMMmmm...
Seems like I've READ something along that order.
But; it could have been trumped by some TEACHING or another...
Romans 8:22-24 New International Version (NIV)
22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23 Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. 24 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have?
