I believe in Jesus. I believe he was the Son of God come to save us from our sins.

What I don't believe is that people are acutally arguing over what the condition of Marys womb was.

It's silly. It's pointless. It doesn't have a thing to do with the Divinity of Christ.

Christ is the Divine One, not Mary or her supposedly inviolate womb.

A man who had a retarded son marveled how, on Christmas morning, the lad could be just as happy playing with the pretty, colorful empty box as his older, normal, brother was when playing with the intended gift the box had briefly contained.

I wonder, though, how the Father feels when He sees so many millions slighting His ultimate Gift, because of fascination with the gift wrapping. As a cradle catholic, I am intimately familiar with the psychological dynamics of folk marian devotion. A very sweet and seductive para-Christian cult.

Is that not unbelievable?? I'm sitting here thinking about what Christ means to the world. And how people are dying moment by moment not knowing Him, yet we sit and argue over something so stupid.

We'll have all these answers one day (not that we will really care, once we're in the presence of the Lord).

I'm sure Satan sits and laughs.
