And you, who profess to follow Christ would disrespect his mother so? Look to your own soul, my friend, before judging ours.

Yes, I do follow Christ.

Do I disrespect Mary? No. Luke records all generations shall count her blessed. Why? Because she gave birth to the only Son of God. I agree with the good doctor.

Do I accord to Mary the roman catholic titles of Queen of Heaven, Queen of the Apostles, etc? No.

Do I agree with roman catholicism that tells people to pray to Mary, to look to her for answered prayers when Christ won't answer them? No.

We have catholic writings that tell us the following:

No one can enter into Heaven except through Mary,

that Holy Scripture was written for Mary, about Mary and on account of Mary,

that Mary is the dispensatrix of all the graces God bestows on man,

that no man is delivered or preserved from the world-wide snares of Satan except through Mary, and God grants His graces to no one alone except through her,

every grace granted to man in this life has three successive steps: from God it comes to Christ, from Christ to the Virgin and from the Virgin it descends to us.

There's a lot more. http://www.catholictradition.org/Mary/mary18a.htm

Now, let the reader take note. The above quotes from the website all contradict the Bible and Mary's own Son.

We have John recording these Words of Jesus.

John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, the life, no one comes to the Father but through ME.

I ask, who is disrespecting who?
