The lengths to which the Catholic Church will go to make up their beliefs is ripe for ridicule.

You still have not demonstrated the error. Is this the best that the adherents of Sola Scriptura can do, ridicule beliefs they disagree with? Hmm, I wonder if they have swapped out the Gospel for "Rules for Radicals".

Is this the best that the adherents of TRADITION ALSO can do, ridicule beliefs they disagree with?

The point is ronnie that the Catholic Church has so twisted and corrupted scripture to create their beliefs it has become a joke. Mary is NOT the new Eve nor is she the new ark.

Christ is the new Adam as we see in Romans 5:14. Adam didn't come from Eve. He came from God.

the Ark of the Covenant foreshadowed Christ not Mary. The Ark was where God was with the people. The Psalmist says "Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.…". When the armies of Israel carried the Ark before them they were victorious just as we are victorious when we keep Christ before us. The law was contained within the Ark and so is the law contained in Christ. In Psalm 40:8 we find that the law was within Christ's heart. The Ark went before the people to lead them and so Christ leads His people as we see in John 10:3-4. The Ark was where God was with the people of Israel so Christ is "God with us".

Mary is not the new Ark nor is she the new Eve. As Christ ridiculed the Pharisees for corrupting the laws so we ridicule the Catholic Church for corrupting scripture.
