I want to know the answer to the following question:
What consequences did he believe that this would have on Mary's reputation ?
All the background I'm provided with is that "The celebrated John Duns Scotus (d. 1308), a Friar Minor like Saint Bonaventure, argued, on the contrary, that from a rational point of view it was certainly as little derogatory to the merits of Christ to assert that Mary was by him preserved from all taint of sin, as to say that she first contracted it and then was delivered.". Is that enough to answer the question?
