The Immaculate Conception is a Catholic belief about MARY's conception (not Jesus'). You can't even mock things right!
I was going to say the same, but then didnt bother lol. Good on you for having the patience with such ignorance as to corret it.
You are absolutely correct both as far as the dogma goes. Where does the notion that the immaculate conception applies to jesus come from? I don't know. Protestant propaganda, perhaps? Ignorance, maybe?
Wherever the origin, while I am an atheist myself, catholics believe a lot of things, but that one is pure invention. While I might happily disagree fundamentally with catholicism, it is stupid to attribute to them a claim that they have never made in any way shape or form.
