It’s gotten really late and I am getting tired. Will try to answer you later. You misunderstand where I am coming from and also in my opinion Catholics put far more on Mary in written Catholic doctrine than just honoring her as the mother of Jesus. That means though, that I have to dig through doctrines about just what Catholics do believe about Mary and who she is to Catholics right out of Catholic doctrine. That will be work. I have done it before. I cannot believe that any Catholic that knows Catholic doctrine about who or should I say what Mary is suppose to be can say that they merely honor her as the mother of Jesus and no more.

No, we are not Nestorians, and Mary is more than the mother of a prophet. Unlike either Luther or Calvin, you do not pay much honor to Mary.

I will not argue with you. I will not take my understanding of my Catholicism and my extensive study of my beliefs and change them because one clueless born again Christian has some sort of hatred toward the Catholic church. And it is hatred when you try to tell me I worship Mary and post angry sounding rants to other people about our church. Don’t waste your time searching for Catholic doctrine that you can twist to tell me how wrong I am. How about take that time and go help someone in need this Christmas season. Christmas, ya know when Jesus was a baby born in a manger to his mother, Mary?

And why do you even care what I believe? Your tone in no way makes me want to seek spiritual advise from you. Is that what you think Jesus wants, for you to put other Christians down because they feel an emotional and spiritual tie to the woman who gave birth to him on this
earth?
