The Immaculate Conception is a Catholic dogma that asserts that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was preserved by God from the stain of original sin at the time of her own conception. Specifically, the dogma says she was not afflicted by the lack of sanctifying grace that afflicts humankind, but was instead filled with grace by God, and furthermore lived a life completely free from sin. It is commonly confused with the doctrine of the incarnation and virgin birth, though the two deal with separate subjects. According to the dogma, Mary was conceived by normal biological means, but her soul was acted upon by God(kept "immaculate") in his constitution Ineffabilis Deus, published December 8, 1854. The Catholic Church celebrates the Immaculate Conception on 8 December, exactly nine months before the official birthday of Mary.

L'Immaculée conception de Marie est un dogme de l'Église catholique, décrété le 8 décembre 1854 par Pie IX dans sa bulle Ineffabilis Deus. L'Immaculée conception se fête le 8 décembre, date supposée de la conception de Marie, depuis 1477, par décision de Sixte IV. La fête a été confirmée par Clément XI en 1708. Elle est à l'origine de la Fête des lumières, célébrée chaque année à Lyon le 8 décembre.

OBS

El Dogma de la Inmaculada Concepción es un Artículo de la Fe Católica que sostiene la creencia en que María, madre de Jesús, a diferencia de todos los demás seres humanos, no fue alcanzada por el pecado original sino que, desde el primer instante de la creación de su alma, estuvo libre de todo pecado o mancha de pecado. No debe confundirse esta doctrina con la de la Maternidad Virginal de María, que sostiene que Jesús fue concebido sin intervención de varón, que María permaneció virgen antes, durante y después del parto. La doctrina fue definitivamente definida como Dogma de Fe y por tanto revestida de los caracteres de infalibilidad e inmutabilidad el día 8 de diciembre de 1854, en la Bula Ineffabilis Deus del Papa Pío IX.
