   Where in the word of God do you find support for Mary=ism? And why was it not   
   found until after the founding of the RCC, and upon what was it based? Did   
   you ever bother to look and verify any of it?   
      
   Given God's distaste for the title of "Queen of Heaven", how then can you   
   justify that which God opposed, and left the Jews on their own to follow her   
   with non of the benefits of Judiasm?
