“Difference being I never knelt and prayed to any of the “art” nor asked the “art” for anything nor invoke the “arts” name for salvation as catholics do with Mary.”
It’s baffling. Truly.
Catholics don’t do *any* of those thing.
I feel compelled to urge to try harder to see the truth. It looks to me like you’re not trying at all.
I hope you aren't saying cathokics don't pray to Mary because they're too many examples. The apparitions that pass themselves off as mary tell the people to trust in her for salvation.
If you're serious about this I don't mind discussing.
I understand the emotional attachment catholics have for Mary and to ask someone to question that attachment is difficult. If you're open to an honest discussion we can do that.
I would recommend we do so over freepmail for confidentiality purposes.
