The Immaculate Conception, a solemnity, a day on which all Catholics are obligated to attend Mass. In 1854, Pope Pius IX's solemn declaration, Ineffabilis Deus, clarified with finality the long-held belief of the Church that Mary was conceived free from original sin.

"Mary was conceived free from original sin". I guess that's nice, as it removes by one generation the possibility of Jesus being tainted by original sin. But what about Mary's parents?
