In both cases someone I trust told me of certain facts and I trust the source. I trust my grandfather and I trust my Church, and I am happy to tell you of these facts as facts. Facts may indeed be facts, but there are no facts concerning the perpetual virginity of Mary. There's just hearsay and opinion, not even remotely supported by Scripture.

There's just hearsay and opinion, not even remotely supported by Scripture There are many historical facts not supported by scripture. In fact, most of the word history from that age is hearsay and opinion. We know of the lives of 12 Ceasars from Suetonius but what he wrote was stories told to him but some unidentified others, -- hearsay -- and his opinions. Same for nearly every piece of ancient history: Pliny, Eusebius, Josephus, -- name it.
