I think I'm gonna have ta start takin' those stillers semi-seriously.
What a glorious day to be a Steeler fan. The Bucs made the mistake of trashtalking and basically daring the Bus to run against them. The Steelers made Tampa's "dominant" defense look silly. By the mid of the third period their defensive greats were sucking wind.
The Bus threw a TD pass and once in the game Kordell Stewert stayed on the sideline and they hiked the ball to a receiver lined up in the backfield. All this and they still could have lost with a play or two at the end. We still need to get the offense scoring when we have the chances.
Next up the first-ever Monday night game in Heinz Field against the Titans. This will be one to watch. Can the surging Steelers give the struggling Titans a mercy killing?
Oh, and Penn State finally won a game, letting JoePa finally tie Bear Bryant's record. And Notre Dame won too!
(If only the Lions would have held out!)

LOL! I noticed that this is your first post today. I trust you have now 'recovered' from your 'celebration'?! ;o)
Or is there some other logical flaw?
The logical flaw comes in on the error created in lifting Mary up on a pedastal, making idols to her, etc. The error is in the midst of that, seeing the Catholic church say she gave birth to God and leave it hanging out there for people to abuse.
Say again? The logical flaw is that of emphasis? Saying that Mary is the "Mother of God" with a specific meaning can lead to abuse and confusion is true. But it DOES NOT make the statement false. The fact that Jesus died for our sins and we are "saved" when we ask for forgiveness can be miscontrued to mean that we are free to sin as much as we want, cause we wil be covered by Christ's sacrifice. Does the fact that an idea can be misunderstood make what is true, false?
I understand completely why it's done. Ya'll may not; but, ya'll are the willing dupes (scuse') that have to defend it because a bunch of Carnys in fish hats are more intent on their own purposes than on watching out for your souls.
Bite me.
If it looks good, do it. If it makes money do it. If it gives them power do it. What other reason is there other than just outright error? Because mariology does not in anyway line up with scripture.
What reason? Because it is true and scriptural. That you don't like the fact that it can be abused by some doesn't mean it isn't true or isn't Scriptural. Which part isn't true? Was Jesus not God or did Mary not give birth to Jesus?
Well?
