Genesis 3:15 speaks of the seed of the woman crushing the head of the serpent. That is Mary’s presence in the context. It is a good idea to read the Holy Bible every once in a while.

No; it is not.

You saying it over and over what you've been convinced of is not convincing anyone else.

It would be better to take some remedial English classes.

No it isn't. It's speaking of Eve. Jesus is her seed as well as Mary's. It's quite a stretch to say that this scripture is "Mary’s presence in the context."

In the context, it is Eve.

I under stand why the Catholic religion has to see Mary there, but it just isn't so.

It is a good idea to read the Holy Bible every once in a while.

I would suggest that you increase your frequency of Bible reading. And pray the Holy Spirit shows you what it means.

If you are using a Catholic version, compare to the Greek and Hebrew for clarification of scriptures that are difficult for you to understand correctly.

Do you mind telling us how this prophetic crushing of the seed of the woman’s head is supposed to work out in real time? Is it Mary who is the prophesied great warrior from heaven who is to defeat the antichrist and his armies at Armageddon? Mary is to do this instead of Christ?

Was she wounded in her heel grappling with the seed of the serpent at the first advent? (We Protestants believe this depicts Christ at the first advent)
