Have you actually read this?

I notice that many of the posted quotes leave out things between the beginning of the quote and the end. In other words, they all have a “....” which indicates things in between the beginning of the quote and the end are left out.

When I google just the quotes what comes up? Why, a list of anti Catholic sites that take just these quotes, presented exactly as they are here and then goes on to denounce Catholicism using these REDACTED quotes as proof that Catholics worship Mary and “replace” God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit with her.

It is deceptive practice of these sites and no-nothings who gobble up the deception and repeat them are counting on gullible people who will never read the entire work to nod in agreement that indeed, Catholics worship Mary.

St. Ligouri was a devout Christian Catholic who had a special love and devotion to Mary. The work in question, “The Glories of Mary” was a defense against the same type of attacks on Marialogy that we see on these forums.

I do not have the book, and it will take some time for me to find the COMPLETE quotes but suffice it to say for now, that what was cut and pasted here was meant to inflame and not educate or edify.

Wrong...it was to support my position that what catholics say isn't so...and those quotes attest to te fact mary is elevated above Christ... and what is reality.

You say you don't worship Mary, that's she's not elevated above Christ...I posted works of one of your Bishops, who btw was "sainted acoording to your traditions, and other quotes from leadership and authors which do testify that the members certainly do worship your Mary...and they are led to do so.

Typical laundering of snti=Catholic bigots. They try that a lot here, thinking that the lurkers are stupid and will fall for it.
