I think your efforts are in vain.

Once our Lady is compared to a Asherah, the Canaanite demon, it’s time not only to end the thread but avoid it as an occasion of sin.

"Once our Lady is compared to a Asherah, the Canaanite demon, it’s time not only to end the thread but avoid it as an occasion of sin."

Mary is referred to frequently as Ishtar by some of the cretins who prowl these threads pretending to be Christian. No real Christian would blaspheme God by comparing the Blessed Virgin, whom He chose to carry our Savior, with an ancient fertility goddess who was above all else associated with sexuality and sacred prostitution.

I suppose they believe they are being clever and are doing so to be specifically hurtful to Catholics, but the damage to their own souls is profoundly saddening.

***NO*** PRODDY on FR

is comparing the authentic Mary to anything else.

We do talk about the caricature’d personage the

Vatican headquartered Ishtar-Mary-Goddess cult has concocted out of Mary’s name and personage . . . reportedly greatly to the authentic Mary’s anguished dismay.

CLAIMING OTHERWISE IS COMMITTING THE SAME ‘EVIL’ THAT RC’S ACCUSE PRODDYS OF When we say RC’s do XYZ and RC’s insist otherwise.

YOU CAN’T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS, FOLKS.
