Not any more, accept Mary, who was bodily assumed into Heaven!

No; she wasn't.

What GPS co-oridnates was she standing at when it happened?

Was she dead or alive at the time?

Was she wearing that blue thing we always see her dressed in?

Since you seem to have no answers; you may as well leave the thread.

The Bible doesn’t indicate whether she was alive or dead upon her assumption. The Orthodox discuss the dormition of Mary, which suggests she physically passed away.

It is believed she died at Ephesus, as she was under the care and protection of St. John the Beloved.

As a widow, traditional dress would likely have been black. However, in the approved apparitions, she has appeared, at different times, in blue, white, and/or gold.

You seem unwilling to even question your beliefs, much less consider an alternate point of view. Most of your statements are reflexively defensive.
