[Salvation]

From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,

So are you saying that this line in the Bible is false? It is my belief that many Protestant call Mary "Blessed" also, for exactly this reason--this quote from the Bible.

[Desdemona]

Sal, not me. The Blessed part should be a given and completely understood. That it's not is a form of denial. A very willful denial.

Maybe I just spend too much time around protestants.

[PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain]

Why do you think I don't think Mary is blessed, when in fact in an earlier post I said I do consider her blessed. Just because someone is blessed would not necessarily mean they would not die. Are you just wanting to argue. I personally have acknowledged that I have changed my thoughts on what the RCC teaches about Mary, that you do not worship her. Can you show me the same respect and not call me a Protest-ant, or say that I do not consider Mary a blessed person. What's the deal here. Is all I can figure is you are defensive on this issue because you know there is something to be defensive about.
