Shotgun Apologetics...

St. John - who no holier man lived - was not fit to unstrap Christ's sandal, but Mary taught Jesus to put them on. Meditate on that. </font>[/QUOTE]It shows the service of Mary and the humility of John, two qualities that every Christian should emulate.

 

Oh my...its the "its a completly different word!" nonsense again.

OK.

If I walk down the street and pull out a revolver and kill someone I will be arrested and charged with murder.

But I dont have to be.

All I have to do is say to the police officers who arrested me...

The officers would laugh in my face.

And thats why the old worn out "dulia" vs "latria" craziness goes in one ear and out the other.

"We dont worship Mary because we call it by a different word!"

It never ceases to amaze....but its a sad amazement.

Semantics are the choice tool of the propagandist, after all.

 

Here is an example...one among hundreds just like it...of what is NOT goddess worship, because they have decided to..(wink)..call it by a different word...

Everyone else but Mary is just a "mere creature", but of course...

This isnt goddess worship here.

She is the crowned Queen of the Universe, but of course...

This isnt goddess worship.

She is both the Conqueress of evil and of death, but of course...

This isnt goddess worship.

She has the power to convert wicked people, dry all the tears of all the afflicted world wide, to quench hatred, and protect the entire church world wide.

But of course...

This isnt goddess worship.

Sung world wide around HER altars, but of course...

This isnt goddess worship.

But of course...

This isnt goddess worship.

Because, unbelievably, they decide to..(wink)..call it by a different word.

May God have mercy.
