| I've read some bullshit here I can tell you that. Catholocism like ALL of the christian sects in entirely focused around Jesus Christ. Mary is not worshipped, she is seen as a saint and is prayed to as the mother of Christ for the quidence or whatever she gave to the young JC, in other words Catholics pray to her for motherly guidence. There is nothing divine about the way Catholics portray Mary...I should know I had to sit out during enough RE classes (a prod in a RC school) but I still listened in every now and then, Mary is just seen as one of the congregation of Saints, whom I'll add that Catholics also pray to, asking for their guidence and strenght in following the path of Christ.
I'm not any way religious, I just find it fuuny to watch and listen to the Prodestant sects belittle the Catholic and Orthodox Catholic churches and vice versa, each side claiming to be closer to Christ and pure etc etc, when If I remember my Sunday school teachings correctly was completely against the teachings of Christ, whom from what I understand taught not to love him or worship him but rather to love and worship God the father, and to treat everybody as if you were treating God himself?
Just a point really but if you ask me none of the Christian sects are anything like the definitions of "Christian" as outlined in the first post, they are so full of their own righteous indignation and doctorine they seem to have forgotten the teachings and sacrifices of a man who in essense was the first communist, a man whose life was far more important than his death, he may have died for our sins....but he lived to show us not to sin...which is more important?
