From today's Gospel:
"Standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala. When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son." Then he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother." And from that hour the disciple took her into his home." (John 19:26-27).
Jesus said this right before he died. In this exchange, the tradition has long taught, He also entrusted all of us to her maternal care.

Another one of those made up beliefs.

Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

If the apostles didn't teach it.

WHAT?

The text READS she was placed in JOHN's care; NOT the other way around!

Wow!

Catholicism has REALLY messed with your cognitive abilities in certain areas!!!
