“There is no need to be afraid of the Blessed Virgin standing between you and Christ. She stands beside you and always, always points the way to her Son. Remember her words to the servants at the marriage feast at Cana: “Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.”

Yes, I believe she always points to Jesus, as all true witnesses do. She was a direct witness of Christ and her testimony is strong, especially what you quote “Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.”

Jesus proclaimed that “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me.” (John 14:6)

I highly recommend reading and studying John for yourself.

You think maybe I haven't done this? I hope you don't seriously believe that Catholics never read the Bible . . .

I was an Episcopalian before I converted, and I have my 12 year Sunday School pin, thank you very much. My Presbyterian high school required two Bible courses, Old and New Testament, for graduation. Moreover, I have read John's Gospel in the original, thanks to good solid Classics instruction in my undergraduate years.
