    Were Jesus's brothers born of another woman?

    Good on you. Thanks for letting me know. I’m not. It isn’t, and that’s not what I said. There are some topics that they are so entrenched in that engaging them in conversation on those topics would be pointless and antagonizing.

    Were Jesus's brothers born of another woman?

    I wouldn’t have thought to seriously ask anyone the question you asked me. I’m still surprised that you did. At least now you know; that is, if you believe what I said. Why does it matter to you? That’s not what the non-Catholics are criticizing Catholics for. Surely you must know that. It...

    I presume that you wouldn’t. Were you anticipating me saying something different? Yes, I would.

    Were Jesus's brothers born of another woman?

    “Officially, the Church has upheld the perpertual virginity of Mary. Pope Siricius in 390 wrote: ‘This is the virgin who conceived in her womb and as a virgin bore a son.‘ The Council of Chalcedon (451) ratified the teaching of Pope Leo I regarding that Mary is ever-virgin. The Lateran Council...

    Were Jesus's brothers born of another woman?

    “A dogma is a truth proclaimed by the Church to which the Christians owes ‘an irrevocable adherence of faith.’ (CCC, 88) In other words, dogma is not up for debate; it is something a Catholic must believe. Dogmas are essential.“...

    What books are you currently reading?
