We all have one of those in our family.
I was sitting around a table in Cleveland this weekend when the subject of Sarah Palin came up. Everyone hated her.
When we left, my 10-year-old said, “I thought they were smarter than that.”
Nuff said.
Mary was not sinless. If she was, she wouldn’t have needed a Christ.
Mary was not taken up, she died with John, and was buried.
This is more of the same pap that seeks to slowly make Mary a co-redemptrix.
It is sick, blasphemous, and utterly against all biblical understanding.
Paul mentions Mary not once. NO ONE mentions Mary outside of the first four gospels. If she is such an important person...
You would no more pray to Mary, than to any apostle, or your uncle Jim Bob.
This is why I broke with Catholicism many years ago. While there are many good Catholics, they are fed pap.
Be a disciple, have a personal relationship, thank God for all the Martyrs, and Mary for being such an upright vessel.
She is not God, she was Godly, she did not ascend, she died and will ascend with the rest of us.
