Do you not believe in the Incarnation?

>>”But Mary’s is mentioned briefly regarding the birth of the Son of Man”

You don’t believe Mary’s son, Jesus, is God?

Perhaps we have greater differences than I thought.

Do you believe the Word became flesh means God became incarnate? That Jesus is God, the Word become flesh, born of a woman?

Are you Christian or some other religion?

I believe He is the "Son of God" and that He is "The Son of Man" and that He is Emmanuel because those terms are in the bible. I am very very sensitive to Catholic redefinition and relabeling of everything in the bible. To me it shows a very bad lack of respect for God's Word. I will say that I enjoy the way that you discuss these topics. Most people seem to go personal right away. Thanks for not doing that.

That's still possible depending on how strongly you believe on RC doctrines that are unscriptural. Marianism is the biggest offense to me but I also loathe the Priesthood which is antiscriptural. The Pope, which is anti scriptural. The redefinition of the word "Church" also really bugs me. Just to name a few.

Frankly with their doctrinal errors I don't believe that Catholics really believe those things. Time and time again when I or others use scripture to argue against bad RC doctrines the RC's will actually attack the bible itself finding it incomplete and insufficient.
