Mary didn't have a supernatural nature, she has a human nature.

As I understand it, you guys claim Mary was not burdoned with 'original sin' as all humans are...

Jesus, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity, is eternally begotten by the Father from before the ages. Nothing that happened, or didn't happen, or could have happened in Bethlehem could have changed that.

You want to provide some scripture that makes that claim???

There's no Catholic doctrine that says that Mary could not have been tempted to sin, sorry.

If Mary was fully human, she sinned...The only one who was tempted and never sinned is Jesus...

But you mistake "original sin" with "human nature." Before sin, Adam and Eve had human nature but did NOT have original sin.

So you're saying that Jesus would be born to a woman who was sinful and inferior to Innocent Eve?

What’s with FR?

There are supposed to be 141 posts on this thread and every time I load the page, it only shows down through post 109 and just stops.

Nothing following, not even the usual bottom of the page stuff. I’ve never seen it do that before.
