As I’ve noted, Bro,
i no longer have great spiritual concerns about
the attitude of your heart toward God because of Mary.
I’m not even totally sure why. It just seemed at some point, The Lord said you Loved Him above all else and that He’d work out the details concerning you.
That was enough for me.
There are those, however, for whom the INSTITUTIONAL STUFF vis a vis Mary is a very hazardous, even destructive, yellow brick spiritual road.
I suspect that somewhere in your experience, you have even observed such.
BTW. who said RELIGIOUS discussion was ever reasonable!
Good point. Certainly most of the data is on your side!
