Daniel & I would disagree on Mary most likely. I think she was a perfect example of a servant of God. I don't believe in the perpetual virgin.She had children after the virgin birth. I also don't think we should worship or pray to Mary. My parents were Catholic so I have some understanding of the Catholic way. I'm not trying to bash the Catholics at all.

Yes.
I'm not trying to find fault in you and your beliefs but just trying to get you to think about what the Bible says on such matters. Thanks..

(1 Corinthians 2:14) But a physical man does not receive the things of the spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot get to know them, because they are examined spiritually. . .
irony indeed!
