Pope Asks Mary to Inspire Muslims

 

[ Pope Asks Mary to Inspire Muslims Proclaiming the Gospel Ministries] "Pope Benedict ended his last speech in Lebanon with this invocation to Our Lady on behalf of all Lebanese, Christians and Muslims.” The Virgin Mary, venerated with devotion and tenderness by the faithful of the religious confessions, is a sure model for going forward in hope along the path of authentic brotherhood. Lebanon understood this well when, some time ago, she proclaimed March 25 as a holiday, thus allowing everyone to live, more deeply, their unity in serenity. May the Virgin Mary, whose ancient shrines are so numerous in your country, continue to accompany and inspire you!" The Lebanese population is made up of 39 percent professing Christians and 60 percent Muslims. Read more."

Response to comment [from a Catholic]: "And...?"

If Mary could hear your prayers, what would that make her?

 

Response to comment [from a Catholic]: "Alive?"

It would make her a god. Mary cannot hear your prayers (Ro 1:25; Isa 44:20). It is wicked to pray to her. Isa 2:17-18
