I was just showing the incredible double standards of Catholics. They claim the Apostles were there but never wrote about such a monumental event. "They?" You mean Greek Father St. John of Damascus, champion of the Assumption? Why should anyone accept your speculation over his testimony?

NO, I mean they the RCC. How preposterous to think the Apostles were present at her death, believed she was assumed bodily into heaven but never wrote a word of it. Not only that but the RCC also claims no one really knows whether she died and then was bodily assumed or whether she was bodily assumed prior to death. What a discombobulated mish mash of theology.
