>>The Catholics knew, honored and loved Mary for about 1,600 years before there was even 1 protestant.<<

Mary was so insignificant to the Christians alive at the time no one even cared enough to keep track of where she lived out her last days. Not the secular writers, not the religious writers, not that apostles, not anyone. The Catholic Church itself acknowledges the fact that no one knows. Catholics should take a hint.

.....however Jesus did put her in the care of John...."From that hour the disciple took her into his own household." John 19:26

I think it was intentional that the dciples likely didn't reveal where she was buried etc. My gosh had that been known, and with how catholics worship before skeltons they would have more than likely done this to her if they knew where to find her!

You know they pass these skulls and other sordid body parts from church to church and country to country....like a oddity in a carniville.

the location/residence of Mary is irrelevant..we know who she is and honor her for being who she is...where she was at that time means nothing to anyone......we do, however, know where she is now, don't we??
