"I suspect the Roman Catholic crowd will be along and howl that this is bashing Roman Catholics. But for them to be honest they would have to admit their position, as incorrect as it is, that we Proddies hold to damnable heresies."

That's because it is Catholic-bashing. Catholics DO NOT BELIEVE that Protestants are damned because of their faith. Furthermore, Mary as Co-Redemptrix is not an approved matter of dogma. Why do you post threads like these? Who are you hoping to convince? My father was a Protestant, my mother a Catholic. They were married for 40 years and raised Catholic children. He converted to Catholicism before he died. So, I suppose that means, in your view, that he is damned. I don't think so. All you are doing is alienating people. Cut it out.

Of course she is.

But that doesn’t come with the baggage Rome puts on that status.

Mary as "mother of God," She is not the mother of God????

Catholics believe that there are three and only three divine persons. God the father, God the Son (Jesus) and God the Holy Spirit. Catholics also believe that these divine persons are Co-eternal, meaning that they all three exixted from the beginning of time and they are co-equal in stature to each other and only each other. We also believe that Jesus from the moment of his "Conception" came to posses a second human nature. This nature is Co-Equal to his Divine nature. By that I mean that He is Fully God and fully man/ human at the same time.

Mary gave birth to this one person with two natures.He fed at her breasts and she even changed his little diapers. So yes we believe that she is the "Mother of God."

I hope this clarifies our belief

She is not the mother of God????

Nestorianism lives and breathes in the XXI Century.

Appalling, isn't it?
