No person here has truthfully dishonored Mary. Roman Catholics get their knickers in a knot over the subject because people don't "honor" Mary in the same way as they do. That is hardly dishonoring her! If you cannot show where any of the Apostles taught or instructed believers in what they are to believe about the mother of Jesus, then all you really have is what fallible humans developed over time. It is for that reason alone that we SHOULD judge the doctrines and dogmas BY scripture to see if they are true.
Admit it, some RCs are "disturbed" because non-RC Christians don't believe as they do about Mary. It isn't really about honoring or dishonoring her, but Roman Catholics' insistence that "real" Christians have to be Roman Catholic.
No person here has truthfully dishonored Mary.To quote John McEnroe: "You must be joking!"
That’s an excellent summary of the problem here.
That's it in a nutshell.
Good job as usual, bb.
Additionally, it's interesting that their criteria about who a Christian is is based on how they relate to MARY, not how they relate to Jesus.
Jesus has been reduced to not much more than a window dressing by the Catholic church.
I'm still left wondering if there's any Roman Catholic who would take up the challenge to ignore Mary for a whole month and in lieu of the time spend on her, focus exclusively on Jesus.
IOW, give HIM the time, attention, praise, prayers, adoration, etc, that they give to Mary.
Admit it, some RCs are "disturbed" because non-RC Christians don't believe as they do about Mary. It isn't really about honoring or dishonoring her, but Roman Catholics' insistence that "real" Christians have to be Roman Catholic.Stop jumping to conclusions; you might land on your head.
