BTW, I much appreciate pleasant exchanges with you.

Likewise! Now, if you can write how much you love the Blessed Mother for "saying yes" we will start going down the right path

Now now.

It is understandable and reasonable . . . at least to a point . . .

that we both must operate within our respective cosmologies unless and until one of them were to change.

Actually, beyond that, because no two individuals’ cosmologies are precisely identical in OR out of the Vatican umbrella.

I love Mary because she is a human created in God’s image.

I’m thankful she said yes to her limited and temporary role in Christ’s mortal life.

I remain confident that God Almighty could, nevertheless, have raised up a virgin daughter of Jacob from a rock, to fill the role, had Mary declined.
