Is the one you center your life around the one who meant what he said when he used the contrastive word, "rather" when he said this?:
"But Jesus said, On the contrary, (rather) blessed are those who hear the world of God, and observe it. Luke 11:27, 28
One of my main bones of contention with bible quoters is sound-bite-ism. This has been taken out of context. Read the whole passage. He didn't say she wasn't Blessed. It was in a broader address regarding sin. He didn't say anything about her soul, just body parts.

"One of my main bones of contention with bible quoters is sound-bite-ism" Except for the "sound bites" you previously quoted? LOL
BTW!! Did you see the "sound-bites" in #140?
How about this sound-bite?: "None can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him"?
Who are the ones in the "nun" catagory (pardon the pun) that Mary draws to Christ? LOL
