Thank-you for your kind and attentive post...

The Eastern Orthodox Faith holds to the first 7 Ecumenical Councils of the generally undivided Church of the first thousand years of Christianity. The Latin Church, under the German Bishops who militantly took over the Latin Papacy at the end of the first millenium of Christianity, used the Primacy of Peter to assert their own false authority over the Body of Christ on earth. And they have wandered far, as all the rest of Orthodoxy, including those even not in the Eastern Orthodox Faith, continue to attest and rebuff by not permitting Communion with the Latin Communion.

We have kept the Faith from the beginnings unchanged, while the Latins under their own self-authority have imposed many false doctrines - Most notably Papal Superiority [instead of Primacy] and the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin...

This is a poisonous lie. Nobody here refused a prayer.

Nice reply - Thank-you...

Hang in here if you would, at least for a while...

The Blessed Virgin is not the Body of Christ [Which is the Church].
She is a Figure of the Church Which functions in union with Christ Who is Her Head...
We are walking in Fields of great Mystery here...

Thank-you for your prayers...

It doesn't matter. We're all sinful, I hope we all can agree that much.

The topic of discussion is weather or not Mary should be worshipped/venerated, prayed to, made into icons and statues to kiss/kneel in front etc. etc.

According to Jesus, no she should not be.

That's it.

The Blessed Mary is no object of worship, only GOD is. Because she's a human being. Only GOD must be prayed to, worshiped, venerated, deified.

You lost that argument already. No sense hanging onto it.

When someone acts out like that try to realize there's something going on in their lives that makes them think that conduct is appropriate. Sometimes a slap in the face is really just a cry for help.
I agree. Thank you for the reminder.
