We don’t ‘hate religious authority.’ Our churches are built on that. We just preach Jesus and it’s enough. We don’t need a lot of the fluff that goes along with the RCC. HE is our salvation, not Mary, not infant baptism, not the Eucharist nor any of the saints. Stick to HIM, Judith Anne. He’s your pathway to salvation.

Jesus is our salvation also. We love Jesus and EVERYTHING about him. We love his mother who was obedient to God, we babtise our children following the Jewish tradition of the Jews who circumcised their children. St. Paul refers to babtism as a "circumcision not administered by hand" Colossians 2:11,

During our mass, we recieve Jesus' real flesh and blood, presented under the appearances of bread and wine. Joh 6:53-55. This was also prophecized in Malachi 1-11, "From the rising of the sun, even to its setting. . . they bring sacrifice to my name and a pure offerring. Earthly bread nourishes our bodies, Jesus, nourishes our souls.

We honor the saints who served our Savior. There is nothing wrong with that. We have a rich tradition and God encouraged that, why wouldn't you? "Stand firm and hold fast to traditions that you were taught, either by oral statement or by a letter of ours." 2 Thessalonians 2:15
