The Immaculate Subversion

Talking about Mary and Jesus' birth on public radio.

The second installment of my Vocolo (Chicago Public Radio) conversation with host Brian Babylon is now available. Last Friday we talked about the birth of Jesus–a story familiar to many people. But the conversation focused on Mary, the strange events surrounding her pregnancy, and what a virgin birth would mean for our world today. We also looked at the cultural and political dynamics of the day.

  1. Great discussion of the facts of the virgin birth and history of Jesus’ coming to earth. One question, as I understand the Immaculate Conception refers to Mary’s conception without original sin, not Jesus’ conception in a virgin. Is that not correct?
