Thus the evangelical objection should not be against Mary being recognized as honored and holy, but against the egregious extrapolation of the record of Mary and use of tradition to support a level of adulation is is far beyond and even contrary to what is written.

I don't particularly care what you object to or should object to, but to the extent that something like Evangelicalism must exist, yeah, that sounds about right. Time to come back to the Church, Dan.

It is consistent with Roman Catholicism to not really care too much about challenges to her claims or practices, but to presumptuously assert them and foster implicit submission to them, nor are we in the days of the unholy Inquisitions with all its means, regardless of your favor of them, while your response to objections here further confirms the decision to leave Rome by those who searched the Scriptures whether her preaching was Scriptural.

ALL of our Popes are going to be GOOD ones from now on!!



Pope Stephen VI (896–897), who had his predecessor Pope Formosus exhumed, tried, de-fingered, briefly reburied, and thrown in the Tiber.[1]

Pope John XII (955–964), who gave land to a mistress, murdered several people, and was killed by a man who caught him in bed with his wife.

Pope Benedict IX (1032–1044, 1045, 1047–1048), who "sold" the Papacy

Pope Boniface VIII (1294–1303), who is lampooned in Dante's Divine Comedy

Pope Urban VI (1378–1389), who complained that he did not hear enough screaming when Cardinals who had conspired against him were tortured.[2]

Pope Alexander VI (1492–1503), a Borgia, who was guilty of nepotism and whose unattended corpse swelled until it could barely fit in a coffin.[3]

Pope Leo X (1513–1521), a spendthrift member of the Medici family who once spent 1/7 of his predecessors' reserves on a single ceremony[4]

Pope Clement VII (1523–1534), also a Medici, whose power-politicking with France, Spain, and Germany got Rome sacked.

OOps!

The Church's most prominent outreach today, the New Evangelization, aims at reviving the spiritual lives of those who have drifted from Christ.
