Now between me and God, it doesn’t really matter if YOU think it’s Worship of Mary, now does it?
We know what we believe. Who really cares what anyone thinks they believe in that they know about what we are doing?
That’s the whole thing, FRiend. You are really not important at all in my, or any other Catholic’s worship. It’s not about you. So if you want to believe something, continue to have disdain for Catholic worship and spread your “myths”, it truely makes no difference to me.
I’ll try to help anyone out, to clear the air, but when one continues to have a mind that is closed, no one can clear anything. Those who stamp their feet and say, “You are wrong because I define what you do.” are gonna be in for a big surprise when they get to heaven. There are Catholics there! b’gosh and b’gorrah!
So for those who would like to believe all the “myths”, have your superior party. I’ll stay in my own. Childlike, and not worrying about what you think.
It does matter what God thinks, according to His law and to the principles that Christ clearly laid out for us and the practical application of those principles that the Paul and the disciples preached in their venues.
Jesus criticized the Pharisees and Sadducee for departure from the Law in favor of their man made customs.
I pay no attention to the private ruling of councils and srtificial entities. They have no soul. Only each individual has a soul that must be saved.
The only for sure guidance we have in the spiritual path to God is in the writings of those who were close to the events. Therefore, I pay attention to those. If there is a departure from those principles, I point out the departure.
You may accept or reject, but I will speak. Once I speak, I discharge my duty. I'll continue to speak so long as you continue to respond.
