[Dr. Eckleburg]

If "offending" Christ's divinity on earth were an issue, wouldn't the ultimate offense to his divinity be agreeing to be nailed to a cross? If He was willing to suffer the ultimate humiliation on behalf of His sinner children, then surely coming into this world through one of them would be no offense at all by comparison.

AMEN!

The Roman Catholic church negates the very purpose God had in coming to earth and taking on human form. He was supposed to be born of a normal woman who was a sinner just like the rest of us. That was the plan.

The RCC is anti-material world. It sees corruption in the flesh and not in the spirit. That's why, like the Taliban, it covers up its women in nun's habits and cloisters them behind gates and then holds these women up as role models. But men and women are not fallen because they are somehow dirty or "impure," but because their spiritual natures have been corrupted by sin.

The RCC keeps Christ as an infant dependent on mommy, usurps the work and position of the Holy Spirit and elevates a simple Jewish girl to "queen of the universe."

Thank God we "have not so learned Christ."

"Rome has so built up the Mary role that it has become an indispensable part of the present day (Roman Catholic) Church, so much so that if Mary were placed back in the position given her in Scripture it would change the whole character of Roman Catholicism. Some have even suggested that the Roman Catholic Church should be called the ‘Marian Church’, because in its life and practice it gives first place to Mary rather than to the Lord Jesus Christ." -- Loraine Boettner

Any chance of you offering evidence of this?

ABSOLUTELY INDEED.

And it will likely remain so . . . until the AC has the 'ET' facilitated Mary personage appear 'magically' and exhort the world's populace to worship the AC as the 'true messiah.'

And those addicted to worshiping THE INSTITUTION and all else but Christ (Father, & Spirit), will bleet compliantly . . . to eternal damnation.

Well, if Dr. Eckleberg and Lorraine Boettner said it, it must be true. (/sarc)
