- Her “yes” made our salvation possible.
- He spent 30 years with her and only 3 years with His disciples.
- She was with Him during his public ministry and lived with John after His Ascension. IOW, she didn’t just birth and raise the Messiah; she also helped birth and raise His church.
- Gospel writers clearly interviewed her, since there is information they could get nowhere else.
- When we accept Jesus, we become His brothers and sisters; that makes Mary our mother too.
- The commandment says to Honor Your Mother.
One guy I know told me we are supposed to pay attention to Jesus, only Jesus. I wondered if, when his wife loves on his mom, does he jump in between and shout, “Pay attention to me, only me!” How absurd! Think how you feel when your child loves on a sibling or your spouse. Doesn’t it make you love that child even MORE?
The “Verse for the Day” on our PoliNation scripture widget is:
“Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children.” – Eph 5:1
IOW, follow Jesus’ example and honor Mary.

I’m no Catholic so I’m about as qualified as a stick of butter to discuss a lot of this, but don’t Catholics actually pray to the Virgin Mary and the saints? In the Protestant faith that’s a big no-no, and Protestants who do so are in violation of church orthodoxy. We’re only to pray to the Lord God in the form of Father, Son and/or Holy Spirit. Why, I dunno.
Related, did you see one of the headlines over at Gateway Pundit? “Seriously?… Obama Sports Satanist Anti-Semite T-Shirt at the Gym.” I guess now that he’s not running for re-election his fealty to AntiChrist may be fully revealed.

I will do a blog on the rosary and praying to saints. Probably one each. They’re big subjects that require serious thought, but since others have done the donkey work, I just have to go find the best articles and crib them. ;o) I’m so glad you’re interested in understanding!
