Your talking about ‘Transitus Beatae Mariae’

That's the only one that was condemned as heretical.

Let us leave our eternal souls out of this “assumption” and go with those who actually saw/interviewed/wrote down Jesus Christ die rising again and going up to Heaven.

Sorry, I'm not following what you're saying.

“That's the only one that was condemned as heretical.”

The rest are considered fables or just outright Gnostic in nature.

“Sorry, I'm not following what you're saying.”

It means your “infallible” Pope in 1950 used a legend arising in the 5th century to declare anyone questioning it worthy of facing the wrath of God. The arrogance displayed by Pius XII totally contradicts Christ sacrifice and the hope one has in faith in Him to be WORTHY of Heaven. Your infallible human added, 1900 years after the fact, another criteria based on a legend. Keep in mind not on witnesses or even your early Church Fathers but again on legends not taken seriously until 500 years or so AFTER the fact.

Does the eternal soul rest on belief of the assumption or on Jesus Christ? Your infallible one says both, again 1900 years AFTER the supposed fact. Were does Jesus say your are in trouble questioning who I bring up to Heaven?
