The Immaculate Conception - does it compare to baptism?

[anodos]

In the IC, not only is original sin not present, since it was never there, there is no effects left on the soul. Mary is an example of man in his original innocence, total free to choose good or evil without the concupiscence remaining after the removal of original sin.

Thanks, I think that answers my question. I was a little unsure about equating the two because I thought there was probably more to the IC than simply the prevention of original sin.
