You showed your opinion that historical Christianity does not agree with, therfore it's Gnostic.

Catholic teaching is not equivalent to historical Christianity.

There was no special revelation in the twisting of Scripture that was done to try to make the comparison between Mary and the Ark of the Covenant.

All that the Catholic church has done is demonstrate that it will stop at nothing, not even corrupting Scripture, to bolster its Mary doctrines and teaching.

Would Catholicism fall apart without Mary? It certainly appears that, based on the responses of Catholics on this thread, that if you took Mary out of the mix, Catholicism would crumble.

I find it very telling the fervor with which Mary is defended and the almost complete lack of mention of Jesus by the FRoman Catholics.

Ask yourself why God used Saints like Athansius and Jerome to be involved in NT Canon-They are completely Catholic and you ought to thank God for them and the Council of Nicea as well
