Soooooo - let me get this straight . . . I should be the one having a "civil" conversation and let people like YOU attack my Church and our beliefs with impunity? Not on MY watch, pal. As I've said on MANY occasions - I'm here for ONE reason and ONE reason only: To seek out lies, myths and...

Funny how this entire conversation about Biblical art came about because of your complete failure to provide a Scriptural refutation of MY Scriptural defense of Mary's Perpetual Virginity. Good job . . .

And once again - you fail to understand the historical purpose of most art - especially religious art. As I educated you in my last post - the BULK of the population was functionally illiterate. Art was used an an educational tool. It wasn't meant to terrify people or disgust them with...

And again, that's why I pointed out that MOST monuments, be it a painting or a sculpture usually show the subject in a respectful, almost "unrealistic" pose. It's out of respect. Do you actually believe that George Washington was standing that way in the boat in the famous painting depicting...

I'll wait right here for your response . . .

And I guess YOU were never present at a birth because the mother isn't waring anything from the waist on down.

Then SHOW me the verse. The onus is on YOU to prove it.

First of all - WHAT Church are you talking about? What is "RCC"?? Secondly - NOWHERE does the Bible ever mention Mary having other children. If YOU can show me that verse - I will leave the Catholic Church today and join YOUR sect. Finally - contrary to what you claim - there is NO proof that...

Ummmmm, I'm not the one who was talking about being "covered in slime". Weird YOUR mind went there . . .

No - your original argument was about depictions of Mary - NOT Jesus.

Actually - this notion has been destroyed over and over and over again in the following thread - an NO solid refutation has been offered . . . Perpetual virginity of Mary!

Funny - the more rabid the anti-Catholic, the more impotent the responses. You haven't been able to refute a SINGLE thing I've said - but that "mirror" remark was real winner . . .

Do YOU display a picture of YOUR mother spread-eagle giving birth to YOU? Think about it, Einstein . . .

So, why don't you wish that for EVERY memorial statues or painting of everybody? George Washington and Abraham Lincoln relieving themselves on the toilet? Why not have paintings of Jesus all "covered in slime" coming out of the womb? What an idiotic statement . . .

Yet you haven't proven that ANYTHING I've said is a "falsehood". I've provided scholarly linguistic evidence, a litany of OT Types and NT Fulfillments - and verse after verse of Scriptural evidence showing that the "brethren" of Jesus are actually the children of ANOTHER woman. All YOU'VE done...

I destroyed this argument PAGES ago, Here it is again for your edification. Try to give a sound, Scriptural refutation - bot your usual desperate denials . . . First of all - these adelphoi of Jesus, James, Joseph (Joses), Jude (Judas) (Matt. 12:46; Matt. 13:55; Mark 3:31–34; Mark 6:3; Luke...

Now, I'll explain to you WHY you're wrong. If you read my last post carefully - than answer is there as well. As I told you before - the word Kecharitomene indicates as PAST event with a PERMANENT result. There is NO need to mention the future because the result is PERMANENT - got it? As for...

Why wasn't the term "anepsios" used? Maybe it's because these "brethren" weren't cousins. WHO said they were cousins, anyway? As I told you earlier, according to the Protoevangelium - they were step-siblings, children of Joseph from a former marriage. As for your blunder about Acts 1 - Lke...

Ummmm, talk about completely disregarding the Word of God . . . As I showed you earlier - Elizabeth's greeting of Mary echoed David's reaction at the arrival of the Ark of the Covenant: OT - "Who am I that the Ark of my Lord should come to me?" (2 Sam. 6:9) NT - "Who am I that the mother...

Because that's NOT what Mary asked. You keep dancing around the issue because iit is an inconvenient truth. As I have educated you several times now - IF Mary was planning on having marital relations - she wouldn't have been puzzled about becoming pregnant. She would have just figured, "Well...
