I imagine she could if she were God. But, she is a person, nothing more. Wasn’t there a big thread on here lately explaining that technically no Catholic actually prays TO Mary, but somehow asks her to help them pray to God? Now, Catholics are asking Mary to act into history? Hmmm. Sounds like prayer to me.

There is one God and one mediator between God and man the man Christ Jesus.

Nuff said!

You will not see the Eastern Orthodox Church at one of these gathering.

Dutchboy, I pray you explain to me why you don't give the Blessed Mother her due?

Oops...look at that. I just prayed to you!

Do you see the distinction?

The Blessed Mother, read Luke 1:48, is the mother of the Word made flesh. Her unique role in the salvation of mankind shouldn't be dismissed so nonchalantly by the likes of people like you.

Good grief, brother. She is the Mother of God, the second person of the Trinity, Jesus Christ. What IS your problem?
