More fake news.
He is not *demonizing* love for Mary.
He's clearly exposing the error of worshiping and praying to her.
Trying to keep people from sinning by relegating to her rightful place among mankind, as just another believer, is NOT demonizing her.
Does he burn incense to it and pour out drink libations before it?
You mean like Catholics who light candles to and leave offerings at the feet of statues of Mary?
His repudiation of love for the mother of Christ is his golden calf. It makes him and his fellow rebels rich as it draws Catholics out of true religion.
BWAHAHAHA!!!!
Yeah, we're just making a fortune from telling people they are sinning by praying to anyone but God.
Hey, when are the checks supposed to start rolling in? I haven't seen mine yet.
Faithful Catholics can trace their practices historically consistently over the course of 2,000 years by observance of all the saints throughout those 2,000 years.
And faithful CHRISTIANS don't go beyond what is written in Scripture and elevate tradition over the inerrant, God breathed, Holy Spirit inspired Word of God.
Mother Mary, if it pleases thee, do intercede for the poor Protestants that they may confess their errors, repent and believe in the Good News of the Gospel and become unified to Mother Church.
She can't hear you or read your internet postings.
She's dead and in heaven and that's not her concern anymore.
And why would Catholics want Mary to pray for them when as a born again believer, they can have both Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit intercede to the Father for them according to God's will?
Romans 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
Romans 8:33-34 Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.
Hebrews 7:25 Consequently, he (Jesus) is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.
