[MarkBsnr]

What I contested is the Roman Catholic tradition of praying to Mary, a human. True, she is blessed among all women, but praying to her makes her seem to be a deity which she is not and she cannot answer prayer.

I'd recommend that you might read http://www.catholic.com/tracts/praying-to-the-saints in which the whole role of praying for others, the role of the saints in Heaven carrying our prayers to God, and the instruction for Christians to intercede for each other is spelled out, with the appropriate Scriptural proofs.

I am a graduate of Bible College, not a seminary, (cemetary)

So is this wackjob:

A graduate of Bible College, you say? Was it mail order? Was it a weekend seminar? Or did you have to earn an undergrad and graduate degree before actually beginning a religious education? Pope BXVI has a doctorate, a real one. From a prestigious university, not a diploma mill.

and am a born again Holy Spirit filled believer.

From the fuits of your posts, I'm not sure that it is the Holy Spirit that you are filled with.
