[ArrogantBustard]

You accused the Church of "holding Mary equal to Christ. If not superior". Those words are yours, and you CANNOT weasel out of them. I demonstrated the falsehood of your accusation. You CANNOT weasel out of that, either.

Now you can spin and sputter and stick your fingers in your ears and scream "I don't hear you" all you like, but your spin, sputter, finger sticking and screaming don't change the facts. I've rubbed your nose in the truth. Maybe you don't like it, but you CANNOT claim not to know what the Catholic Church actually teaches, and you CANNOT claim that her teaching is consistent with your accusation.

You CAN retract your false accusation. Or you can stand naked in the public square, revealed as a liar.

Your choice.

Sheesh! What a dramma queen!

You are playing semantics and arguing technicalities. Straining at knats and swallowing camels.

In my belief system if you pray to a dead person you are diefying that person. This is a sin. It is against scripture. You say the RC church does not deify her. I think it does and millions of RCs do it in practice every day.

This is just the tip of the iceberg fo my Protestant complaint against RCism. You make void the word of God with your tradition. In dozens of ways. Christ's very complaint against the religious leaders of his day.

You operate in the same spirit.

I'm not naked. I am clothed in the Blood of Christ. No Pope nor tradition necessary. Solamente Scriptura! (sp?)
