My father was a drunk and it’s because he was a Catholic. My brother was a drunk and it’s because he was a Catholic. I was a drunk and it’s because I was Catholic. I knew a priest who was a drunk and a fornicator. Catholics worship Mary. Catholics worship statues of Mary. Catholics follow rules. Catholics don’t know Christ. Blah blah blah. Yada yada yada.

Did you read the article?

How is devoting your life, your all to Mary, NOT worship of her?

Where is room for devotion to Christ if one is devoted to Mary?

While you may not be aware of it, this thread is the result of a certain Catholic FReeper (courtesy ping) baiting FR Protestants with demands to produce a Catholic-to-Protestant conversion story (post three on this thread). I assume now that one has in fact been produced the whining about "bigotry" will begin and it will be pulled (Catholics being an urban left wing immigrant minority in the USA) and that same FReeper (courtesy ping) who started this with his childish baiting will stick his tongue out and probably start demanding more Catholic-to-Protestant conversion threads so that he may repeat the process.

Honestly, are Fundamentalist Protestants the only people you think you are better than? Do you not have the courage to criticize anyone else?

Redneck-bashing doesn't exactly require a lot of 'ovnayim.

Arthur this is a forum not a confessional.

Catholics worship Mary.

 

Why?   She was a really poor example...

1 Corinthians 7:5-6
Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer.
Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

It appears that Rome's Mary was not a very good Christian!

Poor ol' frustrated Joseph!

NEVER gets to CONSUMMATE his marriage!

Mocked by his friends!!

Has to listen, for at least 12 years, "Not tonight, Joe. I have a headache."
