And less true.
I was merely suggesting a less offensive word that could be used when expressing disagreement with the Catholic teaching on the virginity of Mary. Members of my family do not agree with this teaching, and we are very respectful of each others’ beliefs. Truth be told, it is not a big issue with me. I can see where Mary and Joseph could have had children after the birth of Jesus without affecting our salvation.
While I am posting both of you, metmom and Elsie, I want to mention the Weslayan Ritual for the Consecration and Distribution of the Bread and Wine. I do not remember which one of you shared it on Free Republic, but the description was very similar to what I remember the Methodist ritual to be, and it brought back wonderful memories of attending Methodist worship services with my Mom when she was alive. It is a beautiful remembrance of the Lord’s Supper.
