Are you serious?

Every saint has a following. Even the “lesser” saints.

Do you honestly think that if Mary hadn’t been assumed that she wouldn’t have people there?? (at the site)

God the Father brought her up so she would not have to endure the people;

The lack of a mention of Mary after Pentecost where she received the Holy Spirit with the rest of those attending says that Mary was not a factor in the foundation of the new church .. She was most likely buried with her husband.

Seeing we do not have the burial places of many of early Christians it is not surprising ..

What is surprising is that seeing a dead mary lifted up into the heavens got not one mention in the letters written to encourage the new church

Sheesh, imagine her having to put up with us riff-raff all those years.

Kinda makes you wonder why God even bothers with us if Mary can't tolerate us.

For that matter, if she was assumed to she wouldn't have to endure all us unwashed, sinful masses, why is everyone so busy pestering her with their prayer petitions?
