One, Holy, Catholic, Apostolic, and Organized! A Biblical Picture of the Early Church in Miniature

Many have stated truthfully that the Blessed Mother of God is not worshiped in the Catholic Church the same as God, but you keep making the same false statement.

Let's see.

Idols of mary. Check

Catholics kneel before these idols of mary. Check

Catholics pray to mary. Check

Catholics have invoked special titles for mary as advocate, mediatrx, redemptrix. Check

Catholics rely upon mary for salvation/answered prayers. Check.

In any other system this is worship of a goddess. Except the catholic wants to deny what is obvious to everyone else.

Part of this stems from the catechism and its treatment of the Ten Commandments.

Exodus 20:2

A Traditional Catechetical Formula

I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.

1. I am the LORD your God: you shall not have strange Gods before me.

In another thread Salvation posted the one on the right as one of the Ten Commandments.

Here they are again at the following website.

http://www.beginningcatholic.com/catholic-ten-commandments

I am the Lord your God. You shall worship the Lord your God and Him only shall you serve.

You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.

Remember to keep holy the Sabbath day.

Notice what's missing?

For brevity I did not post all Ten.

Interesting on that web page there are no references to Exodus 20 where the true Ten Commandments are. I wonder why?

What is sad is this is a website for beginning catholics. There are several references to the catechism, but not Exodus. Why doesn't catholicims use the book it claims it gave the world?

Roman catholicism has to amend the Ten Commandments to deal with the issue of idols of mary.

Catholicism claims mary was immaculately conceived though catholic sources admit this is not supported in Scripture.

Proof from Scripture

Genesis 3:15

No direct or categorical and stringent proof of the dogma can be brought forward from Scripture. http://www.catholic.org/encyclopedia/view.php?id=6056

Yet catholicism plows right ahead in a vain attempt to do so.

These are just part of the reasons Christians rightly say roman catholicism worships mary.

Why is that the protestors can quote chapter and verse, but still not understand the words and meaning?

Again your statements are false by trying to imply that Catholics worship the Blessed Mother as we worship GOD. That is blatantly false and you should know it. Like Liberals, when someone keeps repeating false statements, then they begin to believe them as true.

I am going to say goodbye as you seem to have your own agenda and only accept your own truth.

Catholic actions say otherwise. Think about that next time you how before an idol of Mary and pray.

I give you information from Catholic sources that refute the catholic position yet Catholicism ignores it.
