To such extent did she [Mary] suffer and almost die with her suffering and dying Son; to such extent did she surrender her maternal rights over her Son for man's salvation, and immolated Him — insofar as she could — in order to appease the justice of God, that we may rightly say she redeemed the human race together with Christ" (Pope Benedict XV, Inter Sodalicia, 1918 A.D.)

Where to begin to point out the errors in that sentence?

1) Where does Scripture say Mary "almost died with Christ?"

2) Where does Scripture say Mary "surrendered her maternal rights" (whatever that means)?

3) Where does Scripture say Mary "immolated" Christ?

4) And finaly, saving the most offensive for last, where in Scripture does it say Mary "redeemed the human race together with Christ?"

Praised be Jesus Christ!

There are no errors in that sentence. But you are asking me to respond using Scripture alone, and that is an error. Where in the Scripture does it say "the Bible alone" is the source of Divine Revelation?

And where did we get the Scriptures from?

Statements like St. Irenaeus and Pope Benedict XV are based on the Word of God as passed on to us through both Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition.

Grace and peace be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ...

We can see from recent research that Mary, by offering up Christ as “the sacrificial victim” has actually usurped the role of the Father in the Plan of Salvation. Where they go from there.. why to the moon I guess Alice
