What difference does it make? Fact or fiction, believing the fact or the fiction has no consequence to salvation does it? Would believing McCain or Obama to be the best choice for president have any bearing on one's salvation? What is your point?
I asked a simple question, was Mary a sinner or not.
So, what is your point in not answering the question?
It does affect salvation if one is looking to Mary for anything, when one ought to be looking to Christ for EVERYTHING.
Amazing how Roman Catholics on these threads avoid actually stating what their Church actually teaches!
Exactly. Good points.
As far as I am aware, it is only her prayers united with one's own to God, that anyone looks to Mary. If that is one thing to many, I can appreciate your point, but it does beg a question. What do you mean by EVERYTHING? If you look to your spouse to prepare your breakfast, would that affect your salvation?
