If Mary is not God, how can I blaspheme her? To say that Mary, daughter of Eve didn't need the Sacrifice of Jesus to be saved is blasphemy.

blaspheme 1. to speak or address with irreverance

blasphemy ... 2. irreverance towards something considered sacred or inviolate

Webster's Ninth Collegiate Dictionary

So you did blaspheme, just as you would blaspheme if you denigrated the Holy Angels; and this is a violation of the Second Commandment "Thou shalt not take the Name of God in vain", which forbids blasphemy and irreverance both towards Almighty God, and towards that which he has made unfailingly holy: Blessed Mary, the Holy Angels and Saints and the great troop of Martyrs.

Secondly, neither I, nor any other Catholic, have ever claimed Mary didn't need the Sacrifice of Jesus to be saved. Didn't you read my post, where I included the verse from the Bible: "And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1.47) You lie in placing this quote on my lips. You are IMPIOUS in your assertions, both as to your untruths concerning Blessed Mary, and your untruths asserted about the Faith of Catholics. You think God is pleased with lying, misrepresentation, half-truths, innuendos, false accusations, and error?

I am eternally grateful that I will be facing God at the time of judgment, not you.
