Maybe not, but she is the only one God, through the Archangel Gabriel, asked to be the mother of His son. THAT says more than anything else. And in this case, too much tradition is there to ignore it

I am being as nice as I can to have a civil discussion. It's drizzily and chilly here so I have nothing else to do but freep.

If you will note, you brought "traditions" into the discussion.

You were the one that commented/complained on the fact that Mary was the only thing being discussed from the artilce. So I tried to change to get along. I know Mary is a touchy subject. You have also in your last post given you opinion, after you said enough. But you are also inferring that you do not want me to discuss it anymore. Fine. I know exactly where this will go if I give a rebuttal to your response. Your right, it has degenerated.

So I will go back to coming down thru the article and giving MOPIOS.

Fine, whatever. You're not the only one with bad weather. And I have a craky dog recovering from surgery.

I brought up tradition because someone on this thread brought up "the bible doesn't say..." which in the Catholic teaching is not a defense. Sola scriptura is not our way.

It has degenerated. Quite a lot.
