I am assuming this rambling rant is inspired by the recent celebration of the Assumption of Mary. While not explicit in the Bible, it is an ancient tradition dating to the patristic days, long before the Catholic Church became the institution it is today. Idk why anyone would get their hair on fire over it. Catholics worship God, not Mary.

Actually, not true. On November 1, 1950, Pope Pius XII, exercising papal infallibility, declared in an Apostolic constitution known as the Munificentissimus Deus that it is a dogma of the Church "that the Immaculate Mother of God, the ever Virgin Mary, having completed the course of her earthly life, was assumed body and soul into heavenly glory."

And Roman Catholics worship Mary big time. I was raised in the Roman Catholic religion, and saw it constantly, first-hand.

It's no WONDER Jesus never married; with the example He saw at home!


 

 The chaste maiden; forever Virgin??
 
 
The Roman Catholic Church  has turned the beautiful, blessed lady of Scripture into an asexual, frigid Jewish wife; who withheld her favors from Joseph for no rational reason.
 

1 Corinthians 7:1-40 ESV 

... each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband.

The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband.

For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does.

Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.

 

 Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer;

but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

You say you were "raised in the Roman Catholic "Religion"...
But in gonna call bs on that.

While your not as obvious as other "false-flag" I "used to be" Catholic posers on FR...
The ignorance of the Catholic Faith comments you make
come right out of a Jack Chick tract.
Because ANY lapsed Catholic would know that any recent dogma introduced by the Church
was based on centuries of cobtemplating and understanding Christian theology.

The comment you falsely replied to here was spot on with the historical evidence for just how the Assumption of Mary came to be - finally, and dogmatically - 1950.
Even non-religious Wiki can show you the evidence of Assumption consideration,
going back to the 3rd, 4th and 5th centuries.
Think a little here before you type.

And now next level;
think how Mother and Child in utero share DNA cellular make up
as we scientifically now know this is reality.

The exchanged DNA cellular make up of Christ
and between, and IN The Blessed Virgin Mary
would not have died- and been interred
here on earth- if Christ-
ALL OF CHRIST-
EVERY biological cell of his human existence
was not to remain on earth.
And dont tell me the Blessed Virgin needed a chariot like Elijah
when he was assumed in Heaven either.
