I posted on perpetual virginity. Why did you go off on other tangents?

“I posted on perpetual virginity. Why did you go off on other tangents?”


The topic is the worship and adoration of Mary, not perpetual virginity. It’s you who went off on the tangent. Here’s Luther on this kind of an obsession:

““Now just take a look at the perverse lauders of the mother of God. If you ask them why they hold so strongly to the virginity of Mary, they truly could not say. These stupid idolators do nothing more than to glorify only the mother of God; they extol her for her virginity and practically make a false deity of her.”
