...but the second part is all fabricated and not "IN THE BIBLE".

Do you not see the connect between "Mother of God" with "mother of my Lord"?

Do you not see that my response addressed the false claim of:

We pray the "Hail Mary"- as each Verse of that prayer IS IN THE BIBLE - for the Blessed Virgin to Pray FOR us sinners, until we die....

The Blessed Mother is praying to God for us sinners.

And you have a problem with that?

Incredible.

I really do not understand the Catholic obsession with Mary, especially with the way they strip all the humanity out of her. No real emotions. No real point of connection. Just an otherworldly illusion of serenity that’s impossible to relate to. Might as well be a statue with how statue-like they made her!

Contrast Jesus, who got angry or wept. Who begged the Father to let the cup pass from him. Who was tempted in every way I was tempted. Who suffered and bled and died. Who is completely HUMAN as well as being LORD.

Jesus is so much more relatable. It’s so much easier to talk to Christ than some faux vision of perfection that bears no resemblence to what God’s perfection really is.
