I think all of the emphasis on Mary comes from anti-Catholics. We don't put "too much" emphasis on her. We acknowledge her as Scripture does. She was exalted by God over most - but never above her Son. What we don't do is denigrate her like anti-Catholics do. They feel that by doing this -...

When people refer to the "RCC" or the Roman Catholic Church, as if it is different from the Catholic Church. It is the Catholic Church, made up of MANY Rites - all in FULL communion with each other.

Wouldn't make a bit of difference to me personally if Mary had other children. It matters to GOD and His Word - so it matters to me. It's a shame His Word doesn't matter to you . . .

Apparently you don't know how to read - do ya? I said that I don't mind if somebody identifies me as a "Roman" Catholic - as long as they understand that this refers to the RITE - not the Church. Read S*L*O*W*E*R . . .

No - it's a very asinine understanding. the people Jesus spoke of in Mark 9:39-40 are NOT the same people He spoke of in Matt. 7:21-23. He spoke well of the people in in Mark 9 - but turns His back on those in Matt. 7. Stop quoting the bible until you LEARN what it says.

Yes, i forgot that you were a hopeless Dispensationalist. That aside - Matt. 7:21-23 is about God's Judgement.

Mary's name is "chanted" 14 times in the Rosary?? What planet are you from?? You started out discussing this rationally and charitably - unlike Stranger and his minion mrhealth - but now you re just being dishonest. Mary's name is never "chanted" in the Rosary. She is asked to Pray for us...

No offense, but EVERY one of the scholars you just mentioned - even the Protestant ones - were FAR more learned in the Scriptures that you are. Not ONE of them was "convinced" as you about Mary having other children. Even Luther and Calvin who hated the Church never parted from the belief in...

The truth doesn't hurt. Who told you that? Was it your little cult over at aggressivechristianity.net??

It has nothing to do with glorifying Mary. Mary's importance in the Gospel is solely because of God and her cooperation with HIS grace. Maybe, you should stop listening to those wacky "Generals" over at "aggressivechristianity.net" . . .

The mother in Psalm 69:8 is also Israel. As for James - Psalm 69:8 says the following: "I am a foreigner to my own family, a stranger to my own mother's children;" This is talking about Israel, who rejected Him. If it was talking about the supposed children of Mary, it wouldn't make sense...

NO discussion aboiut mary's sinlessness?? Ummmm, in post #140 - YOU made the following statement: "So, we have a sinless Mary. Which is never stated in Scripture." You have a very bad memory.. As for Luke 1:28 - I already pointed out where it talks about her sinlessness. Your ignorance of the...

The Catholic Church is ONE. Who told you it was divided??

Who is the "Woman" in Rev. 12 who gives birth to the one who will rule with an iron rod?? As an anti-Catholic - no matter how you answer this question - you lose. So - WHO is the Woman??

And this is just another angry, ignorant rant. We don't "worship" Mary and you know it. That is simply a lie of your own concoction. As for Mary's sinlessness NOT being in Scripture - I have educated you on this many times before. Luke 1:28 calls her "Kecharitomene." Here we have Scriptural...

This refers to ISRAEL, who rejected Him. Besides - if we are to believe that James, Bishop of Jerusalem was Jesus's uterine brother - then you cannot use Psalm 69:8. No matter how much you try to fit this square peg into a round hole - it won't work.

What "Day" is it referring to?? According to YOUR own words: "It is talking about the entrance into the 'Kingdom of Heaven'." WHY would they be in line to get into Heaven if they're not getting in??

"Beyond a shadow of a doubt"?? That's about the most dishonest thing you've said so far. Not even the most virulent anti-Catholic with half a brain would make such an asinine statement. No - as we've shown - the weight of Scripture, Tradition and testimonies from YOUR Protestant Fathers all...

When did Jesus "refute" Mary as His mother?? Care to back that up with Scripture??

Why would you call it a "miserably failed experiment"?? That ranks up there with many of your other ignorant remarks.
