“How is it contrary to Scripture to say that Mary was conceived without sin, and committed no personal sin? “

Other than the fact those two things are not revealed in Scripture?

On that basis, anything not in the Scriptures that does not contradict a Scripture, can be a truth!

So, since pizza has never been shown in Scripture to hurt your prayer life, we can now teach that pizza improves your prayer life by making you closer to God.

Got it.

Protestant: It is contrary to Scripture to say that Mary was sinless.

Catholic: How is it contrary to Scripture?

Protestant: Oh! So EVERYTHING that isn’t in Scripture must be TRUE?

You say that as though it were something you disagree with. But you couldn't possibly disagree with it:

Abraham Lincoln was born in a log cabin.

The Wright Brothers flew for the first time at Kitty Hawk in 1903.

The U.S. Constitution was ratified in 1789.

Cleveland is a city in Ohio.

Want more examples?
