As Bishop Fulton Sheen wrote, “It may be objected: ‘Our Lord is enough for me. I have no need of her.’ But He needed her, whether we do or not. God, Who made the sun, also made the moon. The moon does not take away from the brilliance of the sun. All its light is reflected from the sun. The Blessed Mother reflects her Divine Son; without Him, she is nothing. With Him, she is the Mother of Men.”

...she is the Mother of Men.” No... in fact she is the mother of Jesus...who is the redeemer of men and all who come to Him. He alone is the Savior, mediator between God and man. It is His brith we are celebrating..."The Savior has arrived" that we celebrate.

Ugly lies.

As an adult conducting his three-year ministry, Christ did not "need" His mother. He tells us that very clearly when He is asked to see His mother and brothers, and instead points to His many followers who are truly "His mother and brothers and sisters."

And God forbid, Mary is NOT the "Mother of Men."

Rome bastardizes the Holy Scriptures and thus can never understand the truth.

Repent, Rome, if God so wills.
