Why Catholics Call Mary Their Mother

When Catholics call Mary their mother, it may seem like they are taking away some of the respect due to Jesus and giving it to Mary. This is far from the case. Fr. Mike points out two reasons why calling Mary our mother can improve our relationship with Christ, and strengthen our faith life.

1. Loving the people Jesus loves helps you love him more. The more you love Mary the more you love God.
2. Jesus gave Mary to us as our Mother on the Cross.

“When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, ‘Woman, behold, your son!’ Then he said to the disciple, ‘Behold, your mother!’ And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home” (John 19:26-27).

You Catholics can call her anything you want - just don't try to force me to do so!

Litanies of Our Lady of Mount Carmel

BEFORE EACH OF THE FOLLOWING SALUTATIONS SAY:
"Our Lady of Mount Carmel,"
AND AFTERWARDS: "Pray for us Sinners."

Queen of Heaven,
Victorious over Satan,
Most Obedient Daughter,
Most Pure Virgin,
Devoted Spouse,
Mother Most Tender,
Model of Perfect Virtue,
Sure Anchor of Hope,
Refuge in Sorrow,
Dispensatrix of the Gifts of God,
Bastion Against Our Enemies,
Our Aid in Danger,
The Way Leading to Jesus,
Our Light in Darkness,
Our Consolation at the Hour of Death,
Advocate of the Most Abandoned Sinners,
For the Hardened in Vice,
For Those who Offend Thy Divine Son,
For Those Who Neglect to Pray,
For Those Who are in Agony,
For Those Who Defer Their Conversion,
For Those Suffering in Purgatory,
For Those Who Do Not Know Thee.

Let Us Pray.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel, glorious Queen of Angels, channel of God's tenderest mercy to man,
refuge and advocate of sinners, with confidence I prostrate myself before thee, beseeching thee to obtain for me [Mention request silently].

In return I solemnly promise to have recourse to thee in all my trials, sufferings and temptations,

and I shall do all in my power to induce others to love and reverence thee and to invoke thee in all their needs.

I thank thee for the numberless blessings which I have received from thy mercy and powerful intercession.

Continue to be my shield in danger, my guide in life, and my consolation at the hour of death.

Amen.

You asked This Guy to “suggest”.

No need to snipe now that This Guy has done, in all good faith, as you have asked.

Fr. Mike Schmitz, while admittedly not a perfect source on all topics, here presents, concisely and with conviction, Church teaching on the spiritual motherhood of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

You can lead E to water, but you cannot make E drink.

The physical evidence isn't consistent with a worldwide flood 5k years ago. However, I think something like it definitely happened in the area the Bible talks about (modern day eastern Turkey, northern Iraq). My personal theory is that it's connected with the flooding of the Black Sea (formerly a freshwater lake) by the Mediterranean after the end of the last Ice Age.

You will no doubt do your ritual denunciation of me as an apostate for not believing the literal words of Genesis according to the Orthodox rabbis. Why don't you take it up with the millions of liberal Jews out there who don't even believe in Hashem, much less in the Torah. Torah was actually given to them, not to Gentiles like me, so your condemnations of me for not really believing it are a waste of everyone's time.

But I CAN test the water to see if it's potable or not.

Yeah. The smart thing to do, admittedly.
