you believe Mary to be divine

If as you claim, she was born without sin, and the only other person, born without sin was Christ, then they are either both divine, or, neither of them is. Which is it?

You build most of your temples to her. I have been inside them. Inside are bigger than life statues of her, with votive offerings.If an archaeologist were to find these, some time hence, he will conclude that you were a nation of goddess worshippers, as that is where all the evidence points.

Why don't Catholics just come out and admit it? After all your two last Popes make no secret of how they feel about it.

Again pops up the truth of the fruit by which we are known.

What kind of an argument is that? Adam and Eve were without sin -- for a while there. You think they were divine or that Jesus wasn't? Which is it?

Yeah, I was really shocked when Pope John thanked Mary for saving him when the assassination attempt failed. He should have been thanking God almighty for saving him, not Mary. Cheez.
