[Apologetics] Fw: Assault On Mary

[DianneD]

I think the problem here is the fact that non-Catholics try their best, at every opportunity, to counter what they think are the Catholic beliefs about Mary.  The same thing goes for Jesus.  Who would have thought "The DaVinci Code" would have been as big a 'hit' as it was?
