The following is what the Church says about Mary:

This is the real deal. Other posts don't have the sane authority behind them. Nihil Obstat is assigned to books that may disagree on certain points, but which are all are permissible, because they contain nothing the Church has expressly disallowed. To give an example, one book may have a literal view of Genesis, another a liberal view. Yet each will have the nihil obstat and imprimatur. In short, not every book has the same authority behind it. The Church does not require me to accept EITHER opinion.

I didn’t open the link. I know full well what the RCC says about Mary - I was apart of it at one time.

Now it’s your turn to find out what God’s Word says about Biblical Mary.

books.... which are all are .....permissible,...... because they contain nothing...... the Church has expressly disallowed.

Well now this is interesting... Are you saying then Catholics are under the strong arm hold of Rome in what they are 'allowed' to read? It certainly appears so from your statement. If Rome limits what you read it is no wonder the membership is in the dark. If you can only read what Rome "allows" then this is exactly the same indoctrinational tactics false religions use. Humm-mm.

Metmom, does the Vatican approve or disapprove what catholics read? For real?
