Few doctrines of the Catholic Church are as misunderstood as the dogma of the Immaculate Conception of
Mary. Many people, including many Catholics, think that
it refers to the conception of Christ through the action of
the Holy Spirit in the womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The Immaculate Conception refers to the condition that
the Blessed Virgin Mary was free from Original Sin from
the very moment of her conception in the womb of her
mother, Saint Anne.

Pocas doctrinas de la Iglesia Católica son tan incomprendida como el dogma de la Inmaculada Concepción de María.
Muchas personas, incluyendo muchos católicos, creen que
se refiere a la concepción de Cristo a través de la acción del
Espíritu Santo en el seno de la Santísima Virgen María. La
Inmaculada Concepción se refiere a la condición de que la
Santísima Virgen María estuvo libre del pecado original
