Why do you insist on lying by claiming Catholic theology says Mary is God?

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

Scripture does not say directly that Mary is a Goddess. However, Roman "tradition" implicitly gives her godlike powers; i.e. intercession, recipient of prayers etc. God commands that there is only one intercessor; i.e. our Lord Jesus. Not Mary, Not saints period. The intercession of Mary and the saints was merely the incorporation of Mediterranean polytheism into Christianity. See the "Great Mother" and the history of "The Goddess." Look at the travel films showing the blessing of the animals conducted yearly in Sicily. One would think one was transported back 2000 years, incense, flower draped animals, priests waving censors with clouds of smoke.
