Has Mary ever appeared to you while on a mountain, most likely the answer is no (or any other dead person for that matter). You would be one of the most jubilant people alive. You cannot dismiss that she did appear to Saint Louis de Montfort, because she appeared so many times. Some real blasphemy:

10. And yet in truth we must still say with the saints: De Maria numquam satis : We have still not praised, exalted, honoured, loved and served Mary adequately. She is worthy of even more praise, respect, love and service.

This was hundreds of years ago, before the Rosary, the Hail Mary, and well, just before everything "Marianistic."  If Saint Louis De Montfort was alive now, he would NOT have cried for more praise, honour, exaltation, love or whatever.

14. With the whole Church I acknowledge that Mary, being a mere creature fashioned by the hands of God is, compared to his infinite majesty, less than an atom, or rather is simply nothing, since he alone can say, "I am he who is". Consequently, this great Lord, who is ever independent and self-sufficient, never had and does not now have any absolute need of the Blessed Virgin for the accomplishment of his will and the manifestation of his glory. To do all things he has only to will them.

THIS IS AMAZING, BOLD THIS TOO!   WHAT IS IT THAT YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT THESE WORDS?

 

"With the whole Church I acknowledge that Mary, being a mere creature fashioned by the hands of God is, compared to his infinite majesty, less than an atom, or rather is simply nothing, since he alone can say, "I am he who is."

AND CATHOLICS ARE POLYGAMISTS AND MARIANISTS, RIGHT?:-)

You must be misinterpreting this. If Mary is part of the Trinity she can't be "less than an atom". This must have been added at a later date by Catholics worried that their worship of Mary would be too obvious.

You mean unless he were a tool of the devil - in which case he would go right on crying for more.. kindof a Billy idol type thing.. (she cried more, more, more - with a rebel yell..) It's too bad they can't see the error in it; but, then the blinders would need come off. And they are far too intelligent to remove them or even seek to do so.

Did you see the worlds biggest however. One paragraph that tries to praise the Lord and even that is through Mary, then back to exalting Mary. I have been considering how much RC's much hate Paul. He never once used Mary's name he unfolded so man secrets about the Lord and had a thousand opportunities to reveal those special De Montfortian secrets about Mary, but didn't. He put Peter, the first inerrant pope, in his place. I sure don't get that Marianism from the Apostle Paul. It is all invention from the likes of De Montfort and pope whats his face.

You're sure it was Mary that appeared to him ? How would he know if it were really she or not ? How would you know if it were really she or not ?

Remeber, ... the Mormons say that God, the Father and Son appeared to Joseph Smith, too.
