Please provide me with the Scripture verses that explain where Mary was appointed to rule over half of the Kingdom of God and that salvation comes only through Mary. Unless you can show me scripture to substantiate such claims, I must take them as unscriptural and man-made, yet the Roman church canonized him as a 'Saint' and named him a 'Doctor of the Church'.

You won't, of course, find any of that in Scripture because it was NOT taught or believed by the Apostles or the early church. Such blasphemy developed much later as the Catholic Church drifted further away from Biblical Christianity. What is remarkable to me is that some FRoman Catholics here have no problem whatsoever with the ramblings of a "saint" because whatever he said or practiced has the tacit approval of their church and their church cannot EVER be wrong. Instead, those of us non-Catholic Christians will be deemed anti-catholic bigots for daring to expose or comment negatively about such. In more dire times we would have been judged "heretics" by an Inquisition and probably burned at the stake if we refused to renounce our faith. Thank God for small favors! ;o)
