It's unreasonable to expect people to refute every spurious and ridiculous claim made by their enemies. The burden of proof lies on the people making the spurious claim.

For example, see the citation above about "magical powers". Where is the proof from the person making the claim that Catholicism teaches that a priest has "magical powers"? Where is the proof that the Church teaches that a priest's ability to confect the Eucharist comes from anywhere except from Christ through the Holy Spirit? (If that's "magical," then Peter and John had "magical powers" to raise cripples.)

You guys make outlandish claims, demand absolutely no proof from the parties making the claims, and then insist that we are somehow lacking for not jumping through arbitrarily-high hoops to "disprove" claims that were never proven in the first place.

You all are the ones claiming they're spurious...not us. So, if you take issue with its up to YOU to refute it.

Mary's alive in Heaven
Mary can hear prayers made to her
Mary has the POWER to get her son to listen to her
Mary really wants you to pray the rosary...
