Okay, real quick. I normally don't post links and run. I would usually insert my own 2 cents worth but I thought I would give you a head's up on how I feel about consecrating myself to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. You'll have plenty of time to tear it apart before I can even reply!!
Read if you'd like.

I'm really going to sleep now!
Goodnight Samiam.
I am not going to attempt to "tear it apart." I will simply state that the Marian Apparitions preach a works salvation and idolatry.
The quote I gave you above was from a group that had the official sanction of the Vatican under JP2, the Marian Pope. Say what you will, in practice and in teaching Mary is prayed to and worshipped by the Catholic church. I know you disagree. But that's my 2c based upon these non-Catholic eyes that see words for what they are not what I'm told they should be.
