I judge the validity of Catholic doctrine based on the word of God which exposes the dogma of your church as nothing more than the traditions of men, not on some "uneducated" catholic. His word does not recognize Mary as having any authority in heaven or earth. I cannot cast out demons, heal the...

Exactly, and this is not an assumption, or an inference, Jesus referred to himself as "I AM", which pissed the Jews off royally because they knew exactly what he meant.

You aren't understanding the magnitude of what the Catholic church has done with Mary. She has been elevated to the point akin to the role of Jesus Christ as the high priest who sits on the right hand of the father as our redeemer and intercessor. That's not just God "sharing his commission"...

The only polytheism I see being espoused here is the Catholic churches blatant deification of Mary. As far as scripture is concerned, there is no "queen of heaven of all life", there is only a king of all life, and that king is recognized as the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost. Anything more than...

Well, not for me it isn't. For one, I understand that the son and the Father are two distinct individuals. For two, since the son also always existed from eternity as "the word", which was God, you can't really call Mary his "mother" either. She was only used as the vessel, to be the earthly...

So the Father has a mother?

There is a difference between tolerance and acceptance. I can tolerate your existence, and your religion, but I don't have to accept it. In other words, don't tread on my toes and we won't have a problem. Its not really our job to convert, our job is to simply spread the gospel. They will either...

So both terms are referring to the son and not the Father, got it.

Well, Jesus was dying, so he had to pick somebody as caretaker for his mother, as was a typical Jewish tradition for widows. From this one vague little verse, Mary has been exalted as the mother of the body of believers, as sinless, as the "queen over all things", and as the intercessor for our...

Apparently, she is in heaven now, sitting on the right hand of the Father along with Jesus, looking at the way she is exalted by the catholic church.

True Christians would have a problem with it actually, since your stated catholic doctrine isn't in anyway backed up with scripture, in MY Bible that is, not yours.

Sure, all true Catholics you mean, but not all true adopted sons of God. :)

Well, I only have one mother, and its not Mary, she may be yours though. :)

Well, he caused an immeasurable amount of pain for Satan, that's for damn sure. :D

They won't, they will just keep repeating the same tripe we've been hearing for God knows how long. It got old for me a long time ago.

Exactly, because God is the law, its not something that suddenly popped into existence on mount Sinai. The law in its inception is spiritual, and God also being spirit is its source, the standard by which the written letter of the law is based on.

What will he find me doing? Well I won't be on an internet forum, and neither will you. I will be doing one of two things, in hiding waiting for his return, or dead.

Really? So if Jesus taught the law to the Jews who were under the law, then so did Paul. This defines what it means to be under the new covenant, to be saved by the lamb slain for our sins. You aren't saved because the law was made null and void with Jesus Christs sacrifice, you are saved...

Well, I have learned to not care so much about myself or care about others so much, because its not good for my health. If God wants me to put the cares of life on him, or to "let go and let God" as the saying goes, then that's what I will strive to do from here on in, although that's a hell of...

I'm not sure if this information below would change your mind at all concerning the alleged age of Dinosaurs. It is the nail in the coffin as far as I and many others are concerned, one of many. Lets take a look at what they have found over the years with this article: Link...
