He discusses the fittingness of Mary's preservation from original sin in relation to the Holy Trinity and explains how this doctrine was anticipated and believed by saints and religious communities prior to its dogmatic definition. Father Looney clarifies the distinction between the Immaculate Conception and the conception of Jesus, emphasizing Mary's role as the sinless Virgin and intercessor. He concludes by focusing on the birth of Mary.
