” The second part of the Hail Mary is not taken straight from Scripture, but it is entirely biblical in the thoughts it expresses. It reads:
“Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.” “
The only thing biblical about praying to someone other than God, or communicating with the spirits of those who have passed on, are the biblical condemnations and prohibitions against the practice.
Holy Mary, Mother of God
Now please get out your Bible and turn to Luke's account of the Visitation.
How does Elizabeth greet Mary? Mother of my Lord
If your bible does not have these words, then it has been changed from the original Bible -- the Catholic one!
Yeah, and that bad example Jesus gave us of talking with Moses and Elijah at the Transfiguration. What was he thinking?!?
Before a century had passed, you had supposed "Christians" scrawling on the tombs of martyrs "Pray for us".
Before AD 250 (note: 150 years before the canonization of the NT, and 50 years before Constantine), you have the prayer "Sub tuum praesidium" to Mary, the oldest extant Marian prayer.
All because of that bad example Jesus gave us. (NOT.)
Every time somebody in the Bible converses with an angel, they are communicating with a spirit. It happens multiple times in Scripture, and is never condemned.
