These threads have become a source of amusing apologetics from Catholics! I’m anticipating the usual ‘we don’t worship only venerate Mary the Mother of God’ ... and of course the usual insults to Protestants and Protestantism.

Good work mom.

so

I'm to accept a 16 year old girl had the political and religious savvy to actually be a CO-FOUNDER of an organization ... right ?

" Sister Marie Alphonsine Danil Ghattas (1843-1927), was a co-founder of the Congregation of the Rosary Sisters, who spent much of her life in Bethlehem founding schools and orphanages."

You sir, are a troublemaker! How dare you use holy scripture to back up your claims! Don’t you know the pope claims the power to change scripture, even the precepts of Christ? Therefore your argument is baseless.

Ma’am. Sorry

[Mark17]

I know, I am already here. Yes, how dare anyone speak the truth around here. Don't they know telling the truth is a revolutionary act?😂😇😎

"...was s mystic and stigmatic also known as "Mary Jesus Crucified." They just can't resist placing her in every point of Christ's life.

Also known more recently as Marsha Brady. "MARSHA MARSHA MARSHA".

Once again thanks for posting RnMomof7! The many “saints” of Catholicism were simply an attempt to “christianize” the many gods of paganism.

Matthew 22: 37-40

Jesus said unto him, “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”

You are right. I know not to read posts by some of them.

So instead of praying to the god of travel you pray to the patron saint of travel? What other activities have patron saints?

>>So instead of praying to the god of travel you pray to the patron saint of travel?<<

That's the way it worked! The pagans had gods for this and gods for that and with Catholics it's saints for this and saints for that. A god over a city became a saint over a city.

**amusing apologetics from Catholics!**

Why do you put all Cahtolics in this bucket? Especially when we post the truth that stood for over 1500 years?

These words are more important than Christ’s?

I think not.

lol!

This is a breathtakingly stupid article. For example:

Canonization is the Church recognizing what God has done. That's all it is, and all it has ever been. How that somehow contradicts Christ's headship ... beats me. [shrug]
