The Roman Catholic Church gives attributes to Mary that belong only to Jesus.

She was not conceived without sin. She was no taken into heaven without dying. She does not hear and answer our prayers.

She must be heartbroken to see lies about her spread like that.

She is heartbroken because she has been all but eliminated in non-Catholic faiths. I can only quote Bishop Sheen in regard to what you feel is the Roman Catholic Church:

"There are not over a hundred people in the United States who hate the Catholic Church. There are millions, however, who hate what they wrongly believe to be the Catholic Church, which is of course, quite a different thing" --Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen.

Name ONE.

Even if you dispute the Immaculate Conception, Adam and Eve were both created without sin, so that's out.

The Catholic Church has NEVER stated whether or not the Blessed Mother died. However, Elijah was taken into Heaven. Aside from the Assumption and the Ascension are two totally different events, the real similarity is that they both occurred by the Will and Power of God, not the Blessed Mother. So, that's out too.

Do you have any other theories?

She must be heartbroken to see lies about her spread like that.

So, you acknowledge that she IS alive in Heaven.

The Roman Catholic Church gives attributes to Mary that belong only to Jesus. She was not conceived without sin.

Both Adam and Eve came into the world without sin, so that is not an "attribute that belongs only to Jesus". And Mary's sinlessness comes always and only through the grace purchased by the death of her Son.

She was no taken into heaven without dying.

Strictly speaking, the Church doesn't insist on the "without dying" part.

She does not hear and answer our prayers.

How do you know what the saints in heaven do and don't hear and answer? Have you been there?
