You admit you wear the scapular as instructed by the apparition at Fatima to which you have yet to be able to offer any Scriptural support in favor of.

For those following this thread: The "promise" of the apparition was: " Whosoever dies clothed in this Scapular shall not suffer eternal fire.”

Once again, you have shown your ignorance of the One, True Church. The brown scapular was revealed by the Blessed Mother to St. Simon Stock in 1251 A.D. The Fatima apparitions did not start until 1917 A.D.

Protestants cherry-pick the Bible, i.e. John 20;23, they cherry-pick the saints whom they do acknowledge, i.e. St. Augustine about no salvation outside the Catholic Church, and they reject any other saints they don't personally agree with. Why do you think they are proud of that very name, "protestant"?

For them, it's a personal Church of Me, from Luther on down.

Same apparition catholics claim to be "Mary".

You place your faith in an idolatrous piece of cloth based on the words of a false apparition to which you've yet been able to offer any support from the New Testament to justify this belief.

And you won't be able to as it is counter to the message of the New Testament that faith in Christ and Christ alone is what saves us.

Belief in the scapular for your salvation is idolatry.
