Veneration of Mary Debate – Thoughts on Reflection – Part 2
Not every point that Mr. Albrecht raised during the debate was as unusual as his “titular form” argument addressed in my previous comment (link). For example, Mr. Albrecht made at least some oblique reference to one typical argument that we hear from Roman Catholics: the argument that Jesus honored his mother consistent with Jewish law.…

Veneration of Mary Debate – Thoughts on Reflection – Part 1
There were a few issues that arose during the Veneration of Mary Debate that I thought could use a little attention. Also, I see that Mr. Albrecht has posted some thoughts of his own regarding the debate (although I haven’t yet listened to his thoughts … I’ll save that for a later segment). One issue…

Response to Benedict XVI on Christmas
No, Benedict XVI did not visit this humble blog. No head of state (to my knowledge) has visited this blog. Nevertheless, on December 31, 2008, Benedict XVI provided some comments that are (perhaps) worth addressing: The birthday of Christ, which we are currently celebrating, is entirely suffused with the light of Mary and, even as…

Response to Mike Burgess on Mary and the Rosary
Mr. Mike Burgess has provided some thoughtful responses to my previous post on following Mary to Jesus (link). I’ll respond to his comments line-by-line, leaving off only the last two sentences in which he states his opinion regarding the wisdom of my posting my previous post. I apologize that the reader will note occasional changes…
