My GOD had no mother; just someone who supplied some flesh for Him to wear.
14 For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.
15 This becomes even more evident when another priest arises in the likeness of Melchizedek, 16 who has become a priest, not on the basis of a legal requirement concerning bodily descent, but by the power of an indestructible life. 17 For it is witnessed of him,
You are a priest forever,
after the order of Melchizedek.
Or corruption of facts ...
You damn well BETTER worship her!!

Translation: "that those who do not serve Mary will not be saved; for those who are deprived of the help of this great Mother are also deprived of that of Her Son and of the whole court of heaven."
Well, how about me? 😁🤗🤑 I was a little embarrassed by most of the Catholic doctrines. Maybe that is why I had no problems leaving the church. What embarrassed me the most, was the concept of holy water. Even as a Catholic, I thought holy water, was the hokiest thing I ever heard of. I was really embarrassed by it. Purgatory and Limbo embarrassed me too.
Pfffhahahaha.
Have an Internet cookie.
Amazing; it’s like false religions are all the same!
Ooops....
But that wont convince them either.
They will just double down on the Catholic deception.
Honestly, Jesus having a sinless mother would detract from Jesus, not add to him.
“For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.”
And that includes the temptations that rise from having a sinful mother.
Pretty good flesh, though. Jesus kept it after coming back from the dead after all and took it with him when he ascended into Heaven.
It says something special about God’s love for us that God the Son chooses to become one of us and live into eternity.
Just... that it was God that made it holy, not Mary, Catholic-Mary or otherwise.

Its about exalting Mary into a demigoddess
Being sinless gives her top rank in the Roman Pantheon of Demigods and Demigodesses.
True, but raising Mary into a goddess is an insult to Christ on two levels, and I was pointing out the second level.
What really shows His great love for us? The only scars in the perfection of Heaven are borne by the only truly perfect One. Scars He gladly received for our benefit. Think about that for a while.
Oh, I have! But it’s certainly worth contemplating again.
And for all eternity. If that doesnt make you fall on your face in humility and adoration nothing will.... What an unsearchable God we serve.
There is pride in being a Catholics to some degree, but more so in their church, and I think the cultic devotion so often seen by propagandists is due to their self-proclaimed one true church being the source of their spiritual security, and thus they manifest compelled assertions of refuted Catholic teaching, as if that parroting made it true, and or the often desperate attempts to actually defend them. For the RCC is almost like God to many, and thus they cannot stand to see its authority threatened,and thus blithely repeat Catholic beliefs in order comfort themselves, and or desperately contrive arguments to defend her.
May God peradventure grant them "repentance to the acknowledging of the truth" (2 Timothy 2:25)for salvation.
True that
Ah, typical Catholic response.
“YOU’RE A LIAR!”
With no refuting evidence.
LAME; you didn’t even call me the devil this time!
Exactly. Just my opinion, but I think we will be spending eternity, getting to know God better. After a trillion trillion eons have passed, we will still be barely scratching the surface. 😁🤣🤑
Can a woman forget her nursing child, or lack compassion for the son of her womb? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of My hands; your walls are ever before Me. (Isaiah 49:15,16)
