>>WHAT sins did she commit?? LIES?? CHEATING??? CURSING?? MURDER??? Please tell me what sins she committed.....please tell us all..yeah.....SO MANY you can’t name them, I guess. Yeah...MAry was a HUGE sinner!<<

I wasn’t there, but the source of this statement was:

Romans 3:23
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
Romans 5:12
[ Death Through Adam, Life Through Christ ] Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned—

According to Dictionary.com:

all -

the whole of (used in referring to quantity, extent, or duration): all the cake; all the way; all year.

I believe that would include Mary.

It is interesting to note, BTW, exactly how, in the Bible, Jesus converses with and refers to His mother. But God did not choose her because she was blessed. Rather, she was blessed because God chose her.

That can't be repeated enough.

Which is exactly what Catholics believe and have been insisting on.
