How do Catholics honor Mary on her feast days?
There are several ways of honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary on her feast days (as laid down by the Roman Catholic Church) firstly attending Mass on that day has become a tradition for Catholics as is leading a procession for Mary sing Marian hymns (prayerful songs especially composed for Mary) or praying the rosary (a set of prayers allegedly taught by Mary to St Dominic in an apparition). Special prayers are offered on this day asking for Her intercession, help and guidance in issues such as, praying for another child, praying for peace or praying for a husband..Roman Catholic AnswerCatholics honor the Blessed Virgin Mary at all times, but especially on her feast days. We do this, as we should be doing everything, in imitation of Our Blessed Lord, who, as the Sacred Scriptures tell us, honored her and obeyed her His whole Life. The only thing that the Blessed Mother has ever said is summed up in the Scripture verse of St. John's Gospel, 2:5 "Whatsoever He shall say to you, do ye." In other words we honor her specifically by obeying Her, by following Her Son, and obeying Him, Our Blessed Lord.
Who was the first to teach that sex was evil and that salvation was possible only through the intercession of the Virgin Mary?
Both of these views are commonly and incorrectly attributed to the Catholic Church. According to the Church, sex, when it occurs as an expression of love between husband and wife as it was intended, is very good. God created sex, so it cannot be inherently evil; however, using it in ways it was not intended is evil. The Church's view on Mary's role in salvation is summarized in paragraph 2674 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church: "Jesus, the only mediator, is the way of our prayer; Mary, his mother and ours, ...'shows the way' (hodigitria), and is herself 'the Sign' of the way."Roman Catholic AnswerThe above answer is correct. Look at it this way, without the Blessed Virgin Mary, Jesus Christ would never have entered the world and effected our salvation. Everything else aside, if you call this intercession, than it is sort of obvious why she is necessary, is it not? God did not have to save us this way, but He did. I think if you look at it this way, you will begin to understand why the Church teaches that the Virgin Mary is instrumental (NOT the cause of it) in our salvation. Jesus Christ is God and is the one mediator for men. The Blessed Virgin is called mediatrix in an entirely dependent role, she is not God, and has nothing aside from what God, in His Goodness has given her. In other words, we only think so highly of Mary BECAUSE God did first and we follow in His footsteps. The first part of this question, "teach sex was evil" is a common teaching of many heresies throughout the centuries - which the Church has always condemned. In other words, it was a teaching of those who left the Church to found their own religion.

Why couldn't the Catholic Church summarily capture and execute Luther?
One AnswerBecause he was protected by Germanic kings Another AnswerMainly because the Catholic Church does not capture or execute people! The Catholic Church is the Mystical Body of Christ, its mission on earth is to preach and bring Our Blessed Lord to the people in the sacraments, and the people to salvation in Christ. The Catholic Church did their best to show Luther the error of his ways, when that failed, they excommunicated him (the worst punishment that the Church has).

What makes a church a church?
Roman Catholic AnswerThe word "church" is used in several different ways. Primarily it is used to refer to the community of believers, the kingdom of God, and the Mystical Body of Christ. These are the primary senses of the word from Sacred Scripture. In these senses, it is Our Blessed Lord, Jesus, who "makes" the Church which is composed of all those who believe in Him. As the Mystical Body of Christ it is the communion of all those made holy by the grace of Christ.
Where does the Catholic religion state that only Catholics will go to heaven?
Roman Catholic AnswerNo where, because it is not true. The Catholic Church teaches that there is no salvation outside the Church: this does NOT mean that only Catholics go to heaven. It means that anyone that makes it to heaven makes it through the mediation of the Catholic Church. The reason for this is very simple, the Catholic Church is the mystical Body of Christ (read St. Paul). There is no salvation outside of Jesus Christ, so it follows that any salvation must come through Him, and His Church which He set up as the ordinary means of salvation.
