I have a different perspective than you. It seems to me you (some kind of plural as you use we) neither love Mary nor consider her family. That some Catholics love her and regard her as family really resonates with me. I'm curious. Why do you tend to spam threads with so many posts ? Is that a method to silence those you oppose. I'm not complaining too much though, as you have mostly left off posting Mormon scriptures. Now that is really obnoxious. I also make allowances that some folks here may be home bound, or this is their form of church assembly, etc. I was just curious.
What a delicious dig!
All born again non Catholic (don't want to speak for Catholics) love Mary and respect her the same as Jesus did.
Of course she is family, just as are all Christains. Including those in the old testament who saw who Christ is/was and followed him centuries before his physical birth as Jesus.
It will be great to embrace Mary when the dead in Christ are raised!
Do you know that TERYCARL approves of this book?
It seems to me that he should BELIEVE what it says; too.
It appears that this should have gone to Vlad; but since it didn't, I'll answer your question...
I spam to get what the SCRIPTURES say on a subject.
One that is usually brought up, emphasized, repeated by Wannabe_Catholic_Apologists: which in modern terms is known as PIMPING YOUR BLOG.
The NON-biblical teachings of Rome are PROUDLY posted in these threads; and are praised by it's members as the ONLY TRUE interpretations.
I get the impression that ROME does NOT like opposing views, because some of it's followers tend to get REALLY huffy when they are expressed here on FR - a quite wonderful place to be!
(The above sentence was shameless sucking up to management by a RABID PROTestant.)
Curiously, when I do, the Mormons that I ping, to get their attention, never seem to want to CONTEND FOR THE FAITH ONCE GIVEN TO THE SAINTS.
Strange; eh?
