John 19.25-30. Blessed Mary was at the foot of the cross throughout the crucifixion. Are you going to tell me Christ's own mother would not have waited for Him to be brought down to hold His Body and tell Him goodbye? See also Luke 23.50-56, Mark 15.42-47, and Matthew 27.57-61, where it is said Mary and Mary Magdalene helped Joseph of Arimathea bury Jesus. You Protestants should REALLY try reading your Bibles sometime, instead of reading your prejudices. The ignorance and disdain I constantly see displayed about Blessed Mary is appalling!

Whew, lots of strawman false arguments you have there. Yep, there were three Mary's there at the cross, according to John, one being the mother of Jesus. I never claimed otherwise. You need to read my post and the biblical passages you cite again, I still can't find where Mary cradled her dead son in any of them, nor did I read of the "really super creepy Satan character, who is also a woman."

I belive that in your zelous worship of Mary (whom I agree was blessed)you are unfairly criticising my desire for accuracy concerning the biblical account of Jesus.

The Gospel of John explicitly says that if all that Jesus did were written down, the world could not contain the books. (John 21.25).

Maybe one day, you can grasp the implications of that regarding his life and his interactions with others. The Gospels do not record every little thing that happened in his life. It records certain broad events and important discourses. This is why it passes over in near total silence his life from Age 1 to 30. There would also be little need to say that His Mother showed sorrow over His death. What Mother would not feel sorrowful watching her bloved son die in agony on the Cross?

I belive that in your zelous worship of Mary (whom I agree was blessed)you are unfairly criticising my desire for accuracy concerning the biblical account of Jesus.

Who cares about your desires? If you desire an "accurate" film, go make it. Based on the Bible accounts, it should take about 10 minutes total to film, since the Bible gives a broad outline, not an excruciatingly detailed summary of all that transpired. Your remark is uneducated and narrowminded. Do you truly think Jesus and Co. did nothing except what is recorded in the Bible?
