1. The Catholic Church gave the world the bible.
2. The Catholic Church has passed down 2000 years of tradition. My family has many traditions... Isn't it fitting that the family of god will have traditions.
3. The Christian faith came from Judaism and that is why we adopted many of their practices such as incense to carry up prayers. Oh... thats old testament stuff... we were freed from that by Jesus... Then I guess tithing is old school... As well as the Ten commandments.. So we don't need those either.
4. Mary plays an important role in our salvation as the new Mary. Jesus refers to his mother as Woman. If I called my mom that I would get slapped. He called her that as a title. The first Eve brought sin to our world by eating from the forbidden fruit. Mary "the new eve" produced our savior Jesus Christ. "Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus"
I could go on and on but I have to work.
Bless you
