Agreed; that is both unscriptural and un-Christian, and the Catholic Church is glad to agree with you.
Both the original poster and the author of the article have asked you to cease bashing false assumptions of the Catholic Church and to return to discussing the article. I too am going to ask you to please stop threadjacking and return to discussing the article, or to leave the thread.
The justification of the elect by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ would appear to be germane to a thread entitled, "The Primacy of Christ."
As illustrated on this thread, the RCC asserts the "Primacy of Christ" is somehow dependent on Mary, too, since some RC posters have stated here that Mary is indeed a "co-redemtrix."
Perhaps a better title for this thread would be "The Primacy of Christ and Mary and the Magisterium and Tradition and Doctrine and Dogma and the Mass."
Woe doggie(ma)! As far as I can tell, every statement put forth is based upon well-supported RCC teachings (doctrine, dogma and/or tradition), and attested by RCC Freepers.
If you disagree with what has been posted, you need to check with your priest. Or perhaps you ought to consider converting to Christianity.
Here the Council of Trent interposed with a definition of faith (Sess. XXII, can. iii): “If any one saith, that the Mass is only a sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving. . . but not a propitiatory sacrifice; or, that it profits only the recipient, and that it ought not to be offered for the living and the dead for sins, punishments, satisfactions, and other necessities; let him be anathema” (Denzinger, n. 950)

The article is merely a jumping off point for a discussion. Nobody can control where it goes from there. And you certainly don't have the authority to control the discussion. This is your first post on this thread.
If you don't like how it has progressed, then make like a tree and leave.
Consequently, this is the view I hold. It also has implications for the Blessed Virgin as well
He brings in the blessed virgin, he opened the doorin the discussion, so just let us discuss how she affects the primacy of Christ. Let the author defend his work. I think you also have to have a badge if you are the thread police.
