"Each can choose their own faith as long as they don't bother the others about it." But earlier you say this: "You know why that is? Most people think you worship a mortal - Mary. Everything is Mary, not Christ. There's Mary's beads, statues, prayers, ornaments of Mary, but very little has to do with the one who bought you.

That's what people say. That's why Catholics are often seen as "different." Don't blame me! It's not my job to teach them any different!!!

So why do YOU bother Catholics with this calumny?

Here's what I SAID...."That's all I ever saw. If one listens closely, they'll notice....(pay attention here)........ Mary is used to get to Christ in the end." "

I always thought the Catholics made Mary their Goddess. That's all I ever saw. If one listens closely, they'll notice Mary is used to get to Christ in the end."


Read your own words. "I always thought the Catholics made Mary their Goddess." You don't say "most people" here. You say "I." So again why do you bother to mischaracterize their faith? They've denied your characterizations countless times here on FR. Repeating this canard, despite their claims to the contrary, is not much different than calling them liars.
