You cite evidence in favor of the Assumption of Mary as evidence against it? Some of the evidence comes from doubtful authority but it only adds to the authoritative evidence from Greek Father St. John of Damascus.

John of Damascus or Paul of apostle?

LOL. St. Paul never testified against the Assumption of Mary. When has there ever been negative authoritative testimony in direct reference to the Assumption of Mary?

[Quix]

It is CONCEIVABLE

that God could have taken Mary’s body to Heaven—to discourage the very idolatry that has resulted anyway—just as He may well have done with Moses’ body.

It is NOT CONCEIVABLE that the whole RCC dogmatic idolatrous hoopla surrounding such a possibility has a shred of truth to it.

What a stench the overlays are!

“You cite evidence in favor of the Assumption of Mary as evidence against it?”

“Spurious” sources and commentary from the 5th. - 8th. cen. versus Paul's clear statement? Not what I could reasonably call “evidence in favor”

Since Paul's words were applicable to others besides Mary why would he single her out, living or dead?
