You’re kind of mean spirited. Isn’t this a Christian forum?

No she didn’t. But thanks for observing that. Nobody else has mentioned the announcement of my impending marriage. I chose to convert to Catholicism two years before meeting her. I was in the midst of taking RCIA classes when we met. I pursued my annulments and confirmation at the same time...

I’m aware of the difference of doctrine in the Orthodox Church. That was why I mentioned them. I hope I will never have to die for my faith, but it was the Apostle’s Creed that I professed at my confirmation. Mary had a Savior because it was the grace of God that upheld her. Everyone is saved...

Hebrews 12 makes it clear the cloud of witnesses is watching over us. Revelations demonstrates the martyrs pray for us. Why not ask the best Christian thAt ever lived to pray for us now? After all. She was full of grace. That left no room for sin. Give her the benefit of the doubt. She was maybe...

The Blessed Virgin is the Theotokos, the God Bearer. She was the actual physical Tabernacle of God, of which the nation of Israel was a type. She is the Woman clothed with the Sun in Revelation, the Queen of Heaven.
