Almost every single thing you claim is *wrong*.
I listen to ETWN all the time: Catholic Answers Live says these things, as does Jimmy Aikens and other Catholic hosts.
Do you really deny that the Catholic church says Mary was born sinless (they call it The Immaculate Conception)? That she didn’t die? They call that The Ascension.
And praying to Mary is urged throughout the church. I’ve heard many hosts on ETWN call Mary the Ark Of The New Covenant, they use it to explain why people should pray to her, and why she was born sinless.
The belief that sins can’t be directly forgiven but have to be forgiven by a priest was a belief I heard explained a few days ago, when a priest said Mortal Sins can’t be forgiven in any other way other than by directly confessing in person to a priest: a caller had asked if a Mortal sin can be forgiven over the phone, the priest said you have to confess that sin, in person, to a priest and that was the only way that sin can be forgiven, praying directly to God and asking for His forgiveness wasn’t even mentioned.
And babies being baptized before they’re aware of salvation, do you deny that babies are baptized? And Purgatory? You’re not aware of the belief in Purgatory?
The only thing that can’t be said to be direct quotes is the belief that Mary should be prayed to as she has more compassion than her Son, that’s just implied, but I’ve heard that expressed many times, that Mary is sweet, compassionate, gentle and therefore able to talk her Son into forgiving heinous crimes.
You should dig more deeply into your church’s beliefs!
