Have you found the epistle which addresses Mary’s intercessory role? How the sign of the cross and other traditions was thrown in the mix is unknown to me other than an admission you cannot find such scriptural evidence.

Hey Red

Didn’t you figure it out yet - I’m Catholic and your anti-Catholic.

Guess we’re not gonna agree.

Bye.

What was the closest he came to doing that?

A 'folk' prayer from the middle of the 3rd century -- with no real theological support from any ECF's previous or nearest contemporary to it.

Then, some underground cavern wall paintings depicting Mary along with others -- in one, with her being imaged in-between two particular others being interpreted to mean that she was ascribed some continuing, heavenly 'intercessory role' --- like --- all along, right from the barest beginnings --- except when what can be found of that is more closely examined, it's more along lines of folk belief, too, arising organically among human beings, in much the same manner Peter's own instincts to build tabernacles dedicated to Moses & Elijah arose within himself --- but which sort of thinking was immediately squashed by God Himself.

Not the most solid of cases...

What charge of "heresy" will be attempted to be pinned on the dissenters this time?
