immaculate conception????

fryup · 10-12-2008 3:30pm #1

calling all theologans....

on the 8th of december we had the feast of the "imaculate conception" :rolleyes:

so my question is ....seeing that jesus as born on the 25th, does that mean that mary was only pregnant for two and a bit weeks ?? or twelve and a bits months...either way it doesn't add up

Lolfail. The immaculate conception refers to the conception of Mary who is said to have been born without sin.

I doubt it's supposed to represent the actual date of the conception. More symbolic don't ya know?

spurious · 10-12-2008 3:35pm

She didn't get preggers on the 8th - she was conceived on the 8th.

It's fierce hard to follow, I know.

I dont know whether to tell the OP that Jesus was an Aborted Foetus or a Chestbursting Alien. Both are technically correct.

ffs.

immaculate conception isn't when jaysis was conceived.

it refers to the fact that Mary was conceived without sin.

therefore, she is immaculate.

Relax Des it's a common misconception.

ShooterSF · 10-12-2008 3:59pm

It's been worked out that if Jesus did exist he was most likely born more around march or april. You're forgetting that the 25th of December is celebrating the birth of Santa.

I can honestly say I had no idea. I always thought that it meant Jaysus was made without any 'input' from Joseph.

Ahhh I see now. I always thought it was the immaculate contraption that got our virgin mary pregnant and that's why she was virgin, it wasn't a real cock.

yeah, but they way they put the emphasis on conception,

They don't say that she was created without sin. They say she was immaculately CONCEVIEVED implying there was something different about her actual conception. As if sex and immaculateness are somehow incompatible (which would make sense from the churches self-denial stance back in the middle ages).

The words "immaculate conception" make it sound as if there's something unclean about normal sex.

Nowhere in the Bible does it say that Christ was born on Dec. 25th or at any time during the winter months.

For the Pagans, the month of December, especially the 22nd was held in celebration in the change of the sun. The sun starts to get stronger after this day.

The Church, recognizing the large celebration of this particular day by the Pagans, used it as the birth date of Christ in order to gain followers.

350 AD – Pope Julius declared the 25th of December as the official date of Jesus Christ’s birthday.

Christ was more likely born in June, if indeed born at all.

Would you like to know more?

It's also where the term "bastard" came from. When someone was immaculately conceived with an immaculate contraption they were said to be "baster'ed". Over time this evolved into the word to describe a fatherless child we all know and love today.

She was sleeping with God Himself in fairness. If you're gonna be a cuckold, you might as well lose to the best there is.

Personally I'd see it as a badge of honour. "I'm so damn good, only the supreme being could tempt my woman away from me."

But sure how could Joe ever measure up after that. What say we do the no pants dance, Mary? Sorry Joe, I've done God now, you'll never be able to satisfy me like he did.

seriously...can someone just clear this up...

both jesus and his mother mary were born from immaculate conception??

So if Jesus appeared to you and asked you who was immaculately conceived, what would the correct answer be?

no.

Mary was.

jesus wasn't.

jesus wasn't a human being, he is a deity.

He doesn't commit sin anyway.

Mary was created, by God, without the ability to commit any sin, so she would be the perfect vessel for his son.

I dunno. Being able to commit the odd sin might have been necessary in order to be the perfect vessel for Jesus.

Can you imagine if things had worked out differently on the big night? What if Herod's soldiers have caught up with Mary, Joseph and the babby that night?

Soldier: "Hey we're looking for a particular newborn to kill. That one there in the swaddling clothing wouldn't be the son of God would it?"
Mary: "Em.... uhhhh.... n.... ah flip yes, yes it is."
/soldier stabs baby
Mary: ":( Oh if only I'd had the ability to tell the odd white lie!"

Maybe she didnt have that ability. But the immaculate conception means that she was born without sin, and the rest of us were born with sin. Something to do with adam and eve. So we're guilty from the first breath.

luckily in more rational times we have removed all ideologies which blame people at birth for something their ancestors may or may not have done.

Well except white guilt.

Lying is not a sin. It specifically states in the bible that bearing false witness against your neighbour is a sin. It says nothing of other lies.

immaculate conception????
