Immaculate conception[[edit source]]

I removed the following item from the Errors section:

Jack refers to the alien impregnation as a cause for "immaculate conception", a term which refers to Mary being born without original sin, not Jesus' conception with no father...

The reason I did this is because there are several different interpretations of what this term means. There are those who believe that Mary became "with child" through no, shall we say, input from anyone. That is consistent with Jack's comparison in the episode, so it's not necessarily an error. Also, the episode doesn't imply that Jesus was conceived via an alien biting Mary; Jack was simply using terms Gwen would be familiar with. 23skidoo 04:52, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
