The phrase Christian Doctrine about Mary sounds a little bit like an oxymoron. Christian doctrine deals with properly knowing, loving, and serving the true God, the Blessed Trinity. Do you affirm the Nicene Creed or not?

But both the Apostles Creed and the Nicene Creed refer to the "Virgin Mary". Therefore, either you are not "of the same faith" as those of us who affirm the ecumenical creeds, or, you don't really believe that Christian doctrine about Mary is an oxymoron. Which is it?
