Sure He did. God does not force Himself onto us.

God has told a lot of people who didn't want to do the job He sent the on how it was going to be.

The easiest example to use is Moses.

Read Exodus 4 sometime.

On the contrary, the only ones I have every heard of it from are Catholics.

I NEVER heard a single protestant ever equate it to a *divine rape*.

Exodus 4:13 (Moses to God) Please send someone else!!!

God didn't take it from him.

If you knew Scripture well, you'd be able to think of plenty of other examples, too.

So yes, God DOES force Himself on us. It's His prerogative. He's the creator. We're the created.

And in that role she continues to serve her Son. Nobody has ever said she is equal or that she possesses divine powers. She possesses what God gave her, just as God bestows upon us certain charisms.

Sure Catholics do. Just like you did in your previous paragraph when you called her *co-redemptrix*.

They won’t come right out and say it but they do not find Jesus sufficient for salvation. If they did they wouldn’t “require” a “co-redemptrix.”
