Listen to me. If you were really thinking of converting, then the people would have little effect on you. Your judging the herd by the lamb. Many are combative and defencive because we deal with people who are anti-catholic and ignorant on a daily basis.

Go to your local Catholic church or find another message board.

Whenever a Protestant asks a common man to pray for them (a pastor or friend, etc…), that’s literally praying “to” a friend.

Pray means to request.

To request that a friend prays for you is not wrong.

In fact, Scripture tells us that it pleases God.

Don’t believe me?

Look up the definition for the word “pray”.

It’s true…

I second that. Anytime we ask anything of anyone we are praying to them.

I am sorry about your situation and I hope it works out, but you need not ‘take it out’ on people who may offend you here. Especially if they do not understand our beliefs and do not hold our beliefs. How can you be mad at someone who does not believe what you do of Mary? You can’t and I can almost guarantee you Mary is not mad either.

There is a difference between being ignorant and being an ***.

It be more chariable. It’s different when you don’t understand. Namesake doesn’t attempt to understand, he only mocks.
 
I’m glad to see you trust everything you hear and read from strangers. I would take what you read on hear and do your homework to see if it is accurate. I recommed a Catholic Bible, the Catholic Catechism and that you read the early church fathers to verify any statements.

I have to go to bed but I will leave you with some reading regarding Mary’s perpetual virginity.

Lk 1:34, Lk 2:41-51, Mt 13:55-56, Mt 27:56, Jn 19:25, Jn 19:26, Jn 7:3-4, Mk 3:21, Mt 1:25, Mt 28:20, 1 Tim 4:13, 1 Cor 15:25, Lk 1:80, Ex 13:2; Nb 3:12, Ex 34:20

Why not? Shouldn’t people expect to get right answers here to help them decide if it’s for them or not?

Yes, of course. But looking for answers is different than taking rude potshots, as Namesake has done. It seems that the posts are more along the line of “Catholics are awful” and “I don’t need any of this, my God and my Chrisitanity are better”. Such attitudes are not conducive to learning at all, just picking fights.

Hmm.

Kay, back on topic.

It started one dark night
so many years ago
Into the world came a light
of origins so old.

A child was born in manger hay
The son of an ever virgin
in animal feed, the baby did lay,
Born to die because man has sin.

In a humble stable is born a king
The son of God yet God incarnate
To whown shepards flock and angels sing
Glory to he who saves men from an evil fate.

The heir to David’s throne
per eis qui est gratia plena, Mary
The man who bares our sins alone
Yet who has no sins to carry.

She pulls the linen away from his face
and holds him close to her
There come a time like this in a different place,
His body bloodied, broken, adored with myrh.

But on this night, his death is years from now
He is a helpness infant in the arms of his mother
surrended by hay, a donkey and a cow
this night is peaceful, there shall never be another.

Amen.

1 Timothy 2
1I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

2For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

3For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

4Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

I think Namesake is really a lost soul. I am not sure the source of the mocking - she did say she was considering becoming Catholic so maybe it is a spirit of conviction at work. Anyone who thinks there is no original sin really doesn’t need to be saved, do they?

Again, he’s a



He’s 1 of the anti-Caholics who comes to poke a stick in a hornet’s nest, then gets stung a ton of times, gets beligerent, then gets banned, then comes back under a different name.

It’s kind of like his religion.

my spirit rejoices in God my savior.
For he has looked upon his handmaid’s lowliness;
behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed.
