They include posting yesterday's comics that have no bearing on the topic, ping everyone and their brother to pile on and slinging verse out of context.

 
 
 
Bernadine: …all gifts, all virtues, and all graces are dispensed by the hands of Mary to whomsoever, when, and as she pleases. O Lady, since thou art the dispenser of all graces, and since the grace of salvation can ONLY come through thy hands, OUR SALVATION DEPENDS ON THEE.

Bonaventure: …the gates of heaven will open to all who confide in the protection of Mary. Blessed are they who know thee, O Mother of God, for the knowledge of THEE is the high road to everlasting life, and the publication of thy virtues is the way of ETERNAL SALVATION . Give ear, O ye nations; and all you who desire heaven , serve, honor Mary, and certainly you will find ETERNAL LIFE.

Richard of Laurence: Mary, in fine, is the mistress of heaven; for there she commands as she wills, and ADMITS whom she wills.

Mary - Mother of Christ, Mother of the Church -Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Getting your information about Catholicism from anti-Catholic web sites can give you an incorrect impression of Church teaching.

If you want to convert Catholics, you really should know what the Church teaches.
