Why would anyone need to step foot in a Catholic Church?
Why wouldn't you........ scared you might find the truth?

I know for a fact the Catholics Worship Mary as a God. Look at all the pictures and statues of Mary in the Catholic Church.
You know for a fact huh? Show me where the Magisterium or the Catechism of the Catholic Church tells us to worship Mary. Gazing at a sunset—or a great painting of a sunset—and contemplating the greatness of God through the beauty of his creation is not idolatry. Nor is it idolatrous to look at statues of great saints of old in order to honor them for the great things God has done through them. It is no more idolatrous for us to desire to imitate their holy lives and honor them than it was for St. Paul to exhort the Corinthians to imitate his own holy life (1 Cor. 4:16) and to "esteem very highly" those who were "over [the Thessalonians] in the Lord and admonish [them]" (1 Thess. 5:12–13).

How can you Catholics claim to follow Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior when you spend all your time and energies on Worshiping and Praying to Mary?
Very easily pal, because we don't worship Mary. Have you looked up yet in the Magisterium or the Catechism of the Catholic Church where it tells us to worship Mary?

When you go to confession, the Priest does not tell you to Pray to Jesus for forgiveness of you sins.
This right here here shows you know nothing about The sacrament of Reconciliation.

In case you didn't know, after we are absolved of our sins, we pray the Act of Contrition prayer: "O, my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you. I detest all my sins because of your just punishment, but most of all because they offend you, my God, who are all-good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Your grace, to sin no more and to avoid the near occasion of sin."

Don't know about you, but we Catholics beleive Jesus to be the second person of the Holy Trinity......God.

Instead they demand you Pray to Mary 50 times or more for the forgiveness of your sins!
I highly doubt that. Lol! I've been to confession probably thousands of times, (yes, I'm a huge sinner) and never once have I had a priest "demand" penance upon me. Much less fifty Hail Mary's! Lol! Although on many occasions, my penance have been doing acts of charity such as, doing something nice for a stranger, call or vist a sick friend, go spend time with the lonely at a retirement community, ect.


Mary cannot forgive you for you sins and Praying to Mary IS a sin!
Ahhhh.... Duh! We Catholics know Mary cannot forgive our sins. If you think we do, show me where the Magisterium or the Catechism of the Catholic Church tells us that she can. {rolling eyes} Now as for praying to Mary being a sin. Let me ask you this. Do you talk regularly with your pastor and ask him/her to pray for you? If so, I'm pretty sure your pastor doesn't turn you away by saying, "Don't talk to me! Don't ask me to pray for you! Go straight to Jesus!" No, i'm pretty sure your pastor has compassion and "intercedes" (stands in the gap) for him. I'm willing to bet He/she prays for the congregation and for individuals. He/she has compassion and wants to assist people in their relationship with Christ. This in no way diminishes Jesus' role as the Lord and Saviour.

You see, we Catholics dont beleive Heaven to be a "dead" place. Catholics believe people in heaven are alive. (Mat 19:29, 25:46, 10:17-22, Mk 10:30, Lk 10:25-30, Lk 18:18-30, Jn 3:15-16). We think Mary is totally alive, and is praying for us the way a faithful pastor would pray for his congregation, except much more so. She's interceding for the unborn, for mothers contemplating abortion, and for many others who are experiencing sorrows in our world, and who need Jesus.

Why do you Catholics hate God so much that you turn to Mary as your God? Do you NOT know that as long as you pray to and Worship Mary that God cannot allow you to enter into Heaven?
Really??? I gotta ask...... what color is the sky in your world???

Magisterium:

"when, in the exercise of his office as shepherd and teacher of all Christians, in virtue of his supreme apostolic authority, [the Bishop of Rome] defines a doctrine concerning faith or morals to be held by the whole Church",[SUP][/SUP] or of a similar declaration by an ecumenical council. Such solemn declarations of the Church's teaching involve the infallibility of the Church. Pope Pius IX's definition of the Immaculate Conception of Mary, and Pope Pius XII's definition of the Assumption of Mary are examples of such solemn papal pronouncements.

Its by the Magisterium that the Catholic Church proclaimed that only the Roman Catholic Church has all the Truths. One of these "truths" they proclaim was that Mary was without sin. But yet in the Scriptures God declares that ALL are sinners.

Romans 3:23
[SUP]23 [/SUP] for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God

So now we have to ask. How can the Roman Catholic Church proclaim that Mary was without sin when God has said that ALL have sinned?

The Roman Catholic Church has put itself above God by declaring it has a "truth" that God does not have.

The Magisterium is nothing more than a ploy to allow the Roman Catholic Church to put itself above God and declare they ARE God. Why else would the Roman Catholic Church call God a liar?

The very fact that the Roman Catholic Church claims to have "truths" that are above God is telling us that today the Roman Catholic Church is nothing but a Cult following the teachings of Satan. Its Satan who said he will put his throne above God, and it is the Roman Catholic Church that says only they have all the Truths and God does not.

And yet you fordman defend the Roman Catholic Church to the death and toss God and His Truths away like so much trash!

I said it before and i will say it again, no Catholic will ever enter into Heaven as long as they put the teachings of the Catholic Church above God and His Truths!!!!!

And by the way fordman I an still MORE BLESSED THAN YOUR GOD MARY!

Yeah, I have come to learn he is nothing but a dolt! He talks about truth, but he wouldn't know the truth even if it came up and bit him on the ass.

And I've learnd he has no cojones either. if he did, he'd accepted the challenge I put forth to him. And I've come to learn also he is a compulsive liar. I've asked him time after time for the name of the city,State, and parish that supposedly has the forty foot sataues and Icons. If these things were true, you'd think he would jump all over the the chance to prove Catholics worship Mary by going to the source and asking them, then coming back here and throw it in my face. But you know mwc68, you and I both know that he won't because we know (and deep down, he does too) that he would get an awaking of the truth that would change his life forever. Fear is a very powerful thing, he (mec99) has yet gatherd the courage to stand up to his own fears. All we can do is pray that he does.

Pax tecum

Yes, he has fallen for the Catholic bigotry and thinks this makes him a Christian .I'm afraid he has a long way to go to be a true Christian

The ONLY thing God did through Mary, was give us Jesus. :)

She's interceding for the unborn, for mothers contemplating abortion, and for many others who are experiencing sorrows in our world, and who need Jesus.

Umm, no she is not. Mary does NOT pray for us. She does NOT intercede for us. Not to be disrespectful, but Mary is a pile of bones and ashes now in a grave somewhere. Her soul may be alive in heaven, but she DOES not hear, answer or intercede our prayers. THE ONE AND ONLY intercedent is JESUS. It is JESUS whom you should be praying to and asking intercedence from, not Mary. As long as you trust in MARY to answer your prayers, you will find yourself gravely mistaken and don't be surprised to not get an answer from her.

Actually what you meant to say mwc68 is i'm not a true Catholic. Is that all you can do mwc68 is call people names? Do you have anything else mwc68?

Lets talk about Truth fordman.

Romans 3:9
[SUP]9 [/SUP]for we have already charged that both Jews and Greeks are all under sin;

Romans 3:23
[SUP]23 [/SUP] for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God

All = the whole, entire, total amount, every member, every person.

The Definition of ALL is every person!

God clearly says Mary was a sinner because ALL includes Mary. Now i can understand if English is your second language that you would have a problem understanding the meaning of the word ALL.

Lets see now fordman, who is the liar the Catholic Church or God? Clearly God DID say that Mary was a sinner by using the word ALL. Its the Catholic Church that is lying fordman.

I totally understand how difficult reading the Scriptures man be for you fordman. Maybe you should ask your mommy or you daddy to read it to you and explain what the words in the Bible means.

but you believe Mary is a God don't you

CCC 460, The Word became flesh to make us "partakers of the divine nature":78 "For this is why the Word became man, and the Son of God became the Son of man: so that man, by entering into communion with the Word and thus receiving divine sonship, might become a son of God."79 "For the Son of God became man so that we might become God."80 "The only-begotten Son of God, wanting to make us sharers in his divinity, assumed our nature, so that he, made man, might make men gods."81

The "Hail Mary" Prayer is a good example of the Catholics worshiping Mary. The "Hail Mary" Prayer is made up of words randomly taken out of a dictionary.

No where in the Scriptures will you find the Prayer "Hail Mary" in its entirety.

Show us mwc68, show us fordman, where in the Bible is the Prayer "Hail Mary" in its entirety? Its not there. Its a made up Prayer you Catholics us to Worship Mary.

So telling you what the Pope Francis teaches is lying about the Pope?

Tell me mwc68, who really is your God? All i see from you is Mary this and Pope Francis that. I have yet to hear anything from you about how God is you one and only God.

I totally understand how difficult it is to break out of a Cult, especially a Cult that encourages you to Worship Mary as your God. But you really need to focus on God only and reject Mary and reject the Catholic Church and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and follow Him only!

Very few people ever leave a Cult. Once in a Cult they are doomed for life in that Cult. But you must try your best to leave the Catholic Church and embrace Jesus Christ as your God.

Tell me mwc68, will you ever accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? I do know you have claimed you have accepted Jesus Christ, but i do not see it in your life mwc68. All i see is contempt for the True Children of God. All i see is hatred for us True Christians. I see no acceptance of Jesus Christ in your Heart as your Lord and Savior.
