The origins of Mary as Christian Goddess
Well I have thought about the rise of Mary as a goddess-like figure for a quite some time. The fundamentalist Christians are
correct when they argue that the Biblical Mary has little status
beyond being the biological mother of Jesus. Clearly the special status of
Mary had no role in primitive Christianity. Therefore what happened?
The Virgin Mary never became a goddess and never will be.Mary was the mother Of the second person of the Blessed Trinity.Jesus.Mary raised as her own son after the Angel Gabriel Sent her the message that God wanted her to be the mother of Jesus Christ.Mary was concieved with sin meaning God made her aspecialy for his son.Mary had the choice to whether she would or would not be the mother of Jesus and she said yes and made the right choice.Well that's just a little about her if you want to know more, Google it.
Mary has NEVER been and never will be a goddes. We worship God only.
