1) There are probably TENS of thousands of Roman Catholic websites glorifying idolatry and elevating Mary to "co-redeemer" status, just like their pope John Paul II did. A simple google search reveals their pathetic multitude.

2) The photos of Mary on the cross with Jesus have been attributed to Roman Catholic churches. Obviously no amount of authentication would satisfy those who believe their popes are infallible one day; and not the next.

3) If that link isn't a Roman Catholic website, it was an easy mix-up because SO MANY Roman Catholic websites offer the same idiotic fantasies, fever dreams and "vain jangling" with their "crying statues" and their "bleeding hearts" and their "visions of Mary" appearing to gullible peasants who cough up hard-earned cash to support a church that paid out a billion dollars in two days in one city to settle sexual abuse charges against its priests, those "alter Christus."

For instance, here's what they're peddling at catholictradition.org as "our hope"...

Blasphemy. Our hope, our ONLY hope, is Jesus Christ.

"For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?" -- 1 Thess. 2:19

Apparently some aren't, and so they look elsewhere.

Once again you make a claim:
Our hope, our ONLY hope, is Jesus Christ.
and accompany it with Scripture that does not support the claim.

Your posts make it so easy to spot your error.

You've had quite a few of these "mix-ups" lately. I'm curious, do you even bother to check out what a website is all about or are you so overjoyed at finding a website that fits a certain agenda that you just label it Catholic?

There are so many to choose from that one picks “Z”’s Crystal site and proclaimed it Catholic. Right.

By who? A bigotted flake that has a problem with every religion but his own? Where is the proof? There is NONE.

Pull out the “bad Priest” card when the lie is proven.
Obama does the same thing. “Don’t look at me when I lie. LOOK over there......”

And there’s that big, bad Mary again.
