we haven't changed anything within your beliefe and we never worshiped Mary as a god. But she is the greatest of all women. (See look at Luke 1:30). Thats just it we believe as we have since the beginning. Jesus Christ instituted our church and we followed and have never turned from it to make new ways that suit us. We are one true church still standing and all has come to knock us down we are still standing and beliving the same yesteday, today and forever in the one true God.

Hey Birdsflie, Open your eyes. Nothing I said is incorrect. I didn’t say Peter, I said Jesus.
And Jesus didn’t marry that’s the example our priests follow. The holy Eucharist completes Christian initiation. "At the Last Supper, on the night he was betrayed, our Savior instituted the Eucharistic sacrifice of his Body and Blood. This he did in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the cross throughout the ages until he should come again, and so to entrust to his beloved Spouse, the Church, a memorial of his death and resurrection: a sacrament of love, a sign of unity, a bond of charity, a Paschal banquet 'in which Christ is consumed, the mind is filled with grace, and a pledge of future glory is given to us.'" THE EUCHARIST - SOURCE AND SUMMIT OF ECCLESIAL LIFE

Most times, the questions they ask are not real questions, they are just accusations and bearing false witness in the disguise of asking a question.
People do not accept the truthful answer because they have been told differently by their ministers and they do not want to question what their ministers have told them.
I think they are also hoping that we will get tired of answering the same question OVER and OVER, then they will say "You see, the Catholics are not denying that they worship Mary"
It is easier to assume and accept the lies you have been told than to think about what you have been told.

What are you talking about? Christians have almost NEVER followed what Jesus preached. Even now with the statements you listed above, you have shown a total lack of understanding of either Mary or Jesus or Jesus's teachings.
When you have read enough and found out enough of the TRUTH, and you have READ the Bible and do not just spout things from it, you will run from every church that is out there and avoid the Vatican as the evil organization it is.
It is high time that you did some investigating and found out the true messages that Jesus left in the Bible. Start by reading just what Jesus taught, and only what he taught. Try to ignore the 3rd hand stuff written by other people. And take what he taught to heart. He gives specific instructions for interpreting what is written in the Bible.
Then track down Mary's and Mary's mother's writings - the ones that the Vatican burns and refuses to acknowledge - the TRUE accounts of what went on back then and how Jesus taught and more of his teachings and how Jesus wanted the ministry to be run. These writings are VOLUMOUS accounting for SEVERAL THOUSAND pages of documents. These documents on their own are LARGER than the COMPLETE BIBLE with all the chapters removed by the Vatican re-installed!
When you have finally read and understood the true depths of the treachery and deception performed by the current so-called "Christian" church, you will see instantly why it fails, and why there are so many pedophile priests, and why so many mobsters donate billions of dollars to this corrupt organization.
Do not just sit there with blinders on and ignore reality!

You must be catholic, First you statement is incorect, You claim to be a follower of Peter, Well Peter was not a Pope, He was an Apostle, & Peter was a married man, & Peter baptized people by complete immursion in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, & Peter was not a trinity believer, show me where Jesus instituted the catholic church, He never done it, He told Peter that the revelation Peter had, that is what he will build his church upon, & not upon a trinity, & a false baptism & sprinkling people, & not letting a Priest to get married. Peter was a Married man, so if you think your church is following Peter then why can't a Priest get married. Now I can go on for an hour & bring to you the wrongs of the catholic church, But I won't.

Maybe you should ask more questions about your religion.The history of the catholic religion is full of changes to suit each pope.Several religions have tried to exist along with the catholics only to be either slaughtered or harassed until they had to emigrate.I have looked into the horrific past of the catholics and was sickened by how the justification for murder was faith.
With the environment the way it is,maybe you should change your religion,the way you have set your beliefs,we could all be doomed.The pope hasn't said anything about it,showing the contempt for the planet that he thinks was given to him by some dude he has never seen.
Please wake up and pull the wool away from your eyes.

Is that to say that the Catholic church is the same as all Christianity? That there are no beliefs or practices that would set them apart from the rest of Christianity?
Did Mary die?
Is the Holy Spirit our only intercessor?
Was Paul telling the truth when He said, to be absent from the body is to be present with God?

Making confessions to a priest 6x
Calling a priest Father 5x
The Holy Risary 4x
Repetitive Prayer 3x
Ad infinitum ad nauseum.
Have a blessed and peaceful day!

Maybe because they could not accept the fact that Jesus became flesh through Mary and that we respect Mary so much. They don't believe that the first miracle that Jesus did was because of Mary, it's the wedding at Cana, when Jesus turned the water into wine. The could not accept, "Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus." They could not accept that we ask for the intercession of Mary to pray for us.

<> perchance you're defining "deep questions of religion" in a distinctive way than me? The Catholics i know, myself lined, are constantly asking - and being asked deep questions in faith. <> i do no longer. perchance the variety of Christian you're used to astounding out with isn't an analogous tier as that which i'm used to? <> The Bible is a Catholic e book. The Catholic Church is the only Church with the Authority to Interpret the Bible. i'm Catholic. perchance that's why i'm used to asking, and being asked, deep questions of religion. <<* NO DISRESPECTED meant.>> Yeah, maximum appropriate.

The Almighty YHVH set up a system. He sent His “Son” YAHOSHUA to die for the sins of mankind so they would not have to. (They could choose to, but did not have to). Any person who chooses not to allow Yahoshua to take care of their sins, chooses to remain attached to their sins. They thus will wind up in the lake of fire which is YHVH’s method of cleaning this world, and eliminating sin and sinners. The Creator set aside the Seventh day for rest and worship. Yes that is the day usually called “Saturday”. We are not saved by obedience, we are saved by faith. However we are saved FOR obedience. As He said in John 14:15 (and in many other places) “If you love me, keep my commandments.
Churchianity is a pagan religion. The only thing that will change a person is the indwelling savior Yahoshua. Obviously that is rare in this sinful world.

It makes them uncomfortable that all of their churches exist because they split from the catholic church. At least the few who are aware of it.
