In this case it is not about hate, and for once most of the Protestant Catholic bickering has not happened during the Popes funeral week that usually goes on. The Protestants have been very interested and for the most part said nice things or have just read the treads without comment sans a few and that is saying a lot for most threads here,it is your time not ours.
But, there is a reason for Protestantism and boy does his comment about putting into the hands of the 'Mother of my Master" strikes at the heart, when Protestants who know the Bible see that the first thing that goes through their minds is a cold blast of blashpemy and it is a shock. It firmly brings into sharp focus for them though this is a week of coming together and being nice, our huge differences and is hard for them to ignore without some word, otherwise were they faithful.
I have a question for you. Is Mary not the mother of Christ. Is Christ not our master? You know, maybe 18 years of Catholicism really has blinded me to the truth, but I really thought that it was common agreement that Mary is the mother of Christ. /sarcasm off
