People are posting that the way to Christ is through Mary. I'm just looking for some biblical proof to support what they themselves are averring.

That's all you're doing? Just looking for Biblical proof?

You do know that we Catholics have a different view of the role of the Bible in establishing Doctrine from the view held by most Protestants, right? So we might not be the best crowd to ask for such a proof. AND it might not trouble us that we could not come up with such a proof.

Maybe it would help to reach some agreement, that is to get a Catholic to agree with you that we are saying X, before you ask us to justify X (and that we mean by 'X' what you mean by it) from proof-texts. I have all I can do to explain what I DO think. I'm not going to spend a lot of time on (a)explaining what I DON'T think; or (b)trying to explain to a hostile (in the forensic sense) audience that I don't think what they accuse me of thinking.

Do you get that I'd rather not fight unless a fight is shoved down my throat?
