LOL for sure!

Charitably --- or IS it charitably? --- we could attribute it to:

Which is to say, not only is there a lack of comprehension for what they read, but half the time they "read" things that weren't even there.

Or (the beata in me nudges) might own poor communication skills contribute to the fracas?

So, LOLZ all around.

And then we read things that ARE there!



When therefore we read in the writings of Saint Bernard, Saint Bernardine, Saint Bonaventure, and others that all in heaven and on earth, even God himself, is subject to the Blessed Virgin, they mean that the authority which God was pleased to give her is so great that she seems to have the same power as God. Her prayers and requests are so powerful with him that he accepts them as commands in the sense that he never resists his dear mother’s prayer because it is always humble and conformed to his will.... St. Louis de Montfort, in Treatise on True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin, #27, 246.
