You think we worship Mary not because we give Mary too much, it’s because you give Jesus so little.
Worship to you is fog lights and a Bible study.
Worship to us is the sacred Mass and the Eucharist. Done as the 12 disciples taught and practiced since the 1st century.
Of course you think a prayer to Mary is worship.
@VeritasAnchor To give you a good answer would take a while. An answer worthy of your question can’t be done here.
Highly encourage you to visit Catholic Answers - either the live show or their YouTube shorts, have a dozen videos answering this question by men much smarter than me.
A former Protestant noticed something about Catholic worship that she couldn’t unsee.
She had spent years thinking Protestants were the ones putting Jesus at the center.
Then she went to Mass.
Watch this.
@joshwhitlatch@Jochynyc Damn dude. You are so far gone it’s sad. Just pure hatred.
To call martyrs - people who learned from the apostles themselves - who died brutal deaths hellbound for it.
Least Christian person I’ve seen on this platform. Condemning your fellow Christians
Got you. Okay help me with this.
The Book of Mormon. Nephi, Alma, Mosiah, take your pick. The subject is - the Nephites in the Americas. They are described as highly industrial, building large cities, roads, infrastructure, temples and using advanced metallurgies. Also, we are told they kept meticulous records on metal plates. Military and political systems were advanced and considerable in size and capability.
Astounding really considering this was the same time as the late Egyptians.
Can you please provide me a single piece of historical evidence, archeological, written record, etc from the time period that proves that a highly advanced society existed in the Americas in the 500s BC?
