Whydot you, for once, get busy with you own faith and quit telling Catholics your delusions about how theirs works?
I've become well acquainted with the workings of the Catholic Church. From a Protestant perspective, Catholicism is a works-based religion that undermines the basic and fundamental principles of salvation through faith and salvation through grace. Augustine was aghast when he discovered this truth as am I. IMHO, there is little logic in the Catholic religious belief structure except what Catholics have been told by the Vatican-sometime contradicting themselves. The logical circles we have been talking about here with Mary is just one example. It is my obligation as a Protestant to share these error with our Catholic friends. I don't wish to sound unkind or harsh, but it's difficult to tell people things they do not wish to hear. In other words, it is part of my faith to tell Catholics about how their faith works.
Regrettably there are Protestants who have fallen prey to faulty doctrine and feel uncomfortable with correcting others in the faith. So the few of us who bring up these issues seem like anomalies, hate mongers, unloving, and just about everything else that is bad. They are the ones who should be reprimanded; not me. People feel they can believe anything they want about God and that's that. God is loving and He won't mind. Well it doesn't work like that.
