    I do hope that this guy knows that we Catholics do believe that Mary is human just that she is the greatest of God's creations. I live in an area that has historically been very anti Catholic so when people say crap like this I tend to get on the defensive

    because there is a statue does not mean that it is idolized or "trusted" It can merely be a tribute or a memory

    study Mark 3 and see where Mary was keystone to making the only unforgiveable sin for mankind, when Mary came and said Jesus was MAD! and to GRAB H.I.M.! notice at the end of Mark 3, H.I.M. now denies her; just as H.I.M. deny Elijah and Elijah at the end of Luke 9.
