Respectfully, Mary was a very holy and blessed woman. But, she was a mere woman. The Bible does not say her childbirth with Jesus was painless. Protestants are people of the book. Catholics are more people of tradition. If you don't like it, don't go. The focus of the nativity should never be Mary. The real Mary would point to Jesus rather than some dispute that draws attention from Him. He's the reason for the season. Not Mary.
First part is right, second part is wrong.
Protestants are people of the book. Catholics are more people of tradition.
Partially correct. Catholics are people of tradition, both biblical and extra-biblical.
If you don't like it, don't go.
Kind of like, "if you don't like abortion, don't have one"?
The focus of the nativity should never be Mary. The real Mary would point to Jesus rather than some dispute that draws attention from Him. He's the reason for the season. Not Mary.
Catholics have never said that. But if you get your idea of Mary wrong, you can quite easily get your idea of Christ wrong.
And always and everywhere in the Catholic Chuch, Jesus and the Triune God is the object of our Adoration and Worship.
