I don’t what the percentages of homosexual men raping boys are between the several millions of teachers versus Catholic priests, or even the teachers worldwide versus Catholic priests worldwide homosexually raping little boys, but it isn’t relevant to a discussion of the institutionally protected widespread homosexual raping that priests do to little boys in their churches.

Teachers come in all types and in all states of mind, atheists, satanists, churchgoers, Catholics, Muslims, Buddhists, gay-straight-trans-female-male, they are millions of random people not chosen to lead the Catholic faithful and their little male children, teachers are not Priests.

We are warned in the Bible not to commune with the dead. When you talk to the dead you are opening yourself up to spirits you may not know. It is called necromancy. An abomination to God.

Petitioning the saints to pray for you isn't communing with the dead in the sense condemned by Scripture. Notwithstanding Jewish commentary on the matter, necromancy in proper terms is the intentional evocation of the dead for the purposes of divination; this is clearly not equivalent to intercessory prayer.

Those who have died and gone to Heaven do not cease to be part of Christ's Mystical Body — the Church — simply because they have shed their mortal coil: there is no functional difference between asking them or for your fellow brethren at church to pray for you.

Your misunderstanding of Scripture is not even worthy of a response beyond this.

This ex-Catholic will second any criticism of the RCC.

Lived it for 19 years or so. Only Jesus Saves, not some building, not some organization, not some “church”.

From the same article you reference: "[Mary] in the first instance of her conception, by a singular privilege and grace granted by God, in view of the merits of Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the human race, was preserved exempt from all stain of original sin."

It is because of Jesus Christ that Mary was preserved (all for the sake of His glory), and not by any merit of her own. There is no contradiction.

My best guess as to why they refuse to show Jesus the same reverence they show Mary, is because of the spirit they embrace forbids them to come to Jesus.

Look at your posts, you are getting extremely nasty and vicious in a personal way as you try to defend homosexual church leaders raping the boys looking at them as Priests.

Ethel and Lucy weren’t sisters, were they?

No. No way.

Which again is found NOWHERE in Scripture and contradicts Scripture pas previously noted.

And the RC doesn't want to appeal to the ECFs on this as there is NO unanimous consent on this among them.
