I am a returning Catholic and my husband is getting interested in becoming Catholic. He has problems with what he considers worshipping Mary. I am having trouble explaining it to him. Can anyone recommend a book that I can give him that would better explain the Church's position on Mary? Thanks!

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I would try,
"A Biblical Defense of Catholicsm" by David Armstrong. He also has a sequel. It's very well done.
Also, www.catholic.com has a ton of tracts on Mary.

hail holy queen would be good. I would also get "Catholic for a reason TWo: Scripture and the Mystery of God" by Leon Supernant JR. Hope this helps.

Fifty percent kidding (kidding bout u ruin everything, not bout me thinking ive got an answer)

Dr. Mark is awesome! Contrary to popular belief, he, not Dr. Hahn, is the most sought after professor at Steubie, he is awesome!
He also gives awesome homilies (he is a deacon) at St. Peter's Church in Steubenville (the winner, hands down, of the most beautiful NO liturgy I've seen).
