>>“She is much more active than a lot of other saints.”<<

Lourdes, Guadalupe, Fatima, Zeitoun — she has stayed engaged.

And she is quite beloved in the Catholic church and those who bash those who love her are, quite frankly, pretty mean and petty people who have a narrow view of God and Jesus and what constitutes prayer and salvation.

You freely attribute these obvious demonic manifestations to Mary?

Truly sad!

Of course, the so-called “visions”, etc.

However beloved Mary is due to birthing Jesus, he made clear that fleshly family relationships were very secondary to being “my mother and brothers” by following his commandments.

And yes, there's no shortage of pettiness and meanness displayed on these religion threads. sadly.

At the risk of being condemned as a blasphemer, some report seeing Mary's image on a piece of burnt toast. Other's have claimed to have seen Elvis working at diners, gas stations and music stores.

This is not intended to "bash." My faith is in Jesus and not the claims of man.
