[Cronos]

do you even know the meaning of the word "obscurantism"? it means deliberate obscurity or evasion of clarity while I've posted the Litany above and told you Now if you'll notice this starts with asking God directly to have mercy on us, then asks Mary to pray FOR us and ends with asking God to have mercy for us -- I've given you clarity.

you have not responded why you think that praying to Jesus Christ is "prayer to a non-Christian deity" -- not only does the Litany have us praying directly to our Lord and God Jesus Christ, but also asking Mary to pray for us TO God.

Why do you think that praying to Jesus Christ is "prayer to a non-Christian deity"?

Still more obscurantism.
