Question About Mary

[Mungo]

Praying to dead people! That is so unBiblical!!! As a Catholic friend of mine once said, praying to "saints" is nothing more than ancestor worship.

Opinions and more opinions.

Did you quote my post for a reason?

Are you saying that praying to Mary is valid?

yes, I did quote your post, for this reason, that for what Mungo said first in post #70:

Catholics do not worship Mary.

Catholics pray to many,different Saints is heaven, not just Mary - but not in the same way as we do to God.
See thread Praying to the Saints in Heaven

Also in answer to your 2nd. question: Are you saying that praying to Mary is valid? No Sir, I know she is not.

1 Timothy 2:1-5

​

2 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

Pope John Paul II clearly prays to Mary “Together we lift our confident and sorrowful petition to you.” “Hear the cry of the pain of victims of war and so many forms of violence that bloody the earth.”

We've been all through this See post #2, #3, #4, #72 in Understanding Mary - Ever Virgin,

Why didn't you answer my question instead of repeating yourself?

What is your compulsive need to prove that Mary was "ever virgin"?

Catholics do worship Mary. They pray to her, have many statues of her, a.k.a., idols, and make claims that she is "ever virgin" and in heaven. That is worship.

worship (verb): show reverence and adoration for (a deity); honor with religious rites.

Hail, Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

I don't have a compulsion to prove that Mary is ever-virgin.
It's Protestants that seem to have compulsions for attacking Catholic beliefs about Mary.
You are all obsessed with it.

No it isn't - not the sort of worship that belongs to God alone - see post #27.

Post #82 says nothing about praying to Mary being invalid.
In post #83 you post no scripture.

You keep posting over and over and over to prove that Mary is ever virgin. And you claim that you're not compelled to prove that?
