Lines: 19 Approved: christian@aramis.rutgers.edu [To a message by Greg Shay commending the revelation at Medjegorje, P.J. Lohr added a note warning about corruption of the message by Satan. He gave an example of a prayer card that in support of Medjegorje that he believes contains a number of things contradicting Scripture. --clh] Thanks for pointing this out, Phil. As a Roman Catholic myself, I find practices that in any way substitute Mary for Christ to be completely abhorrent. Although it is one things to honor Mary and ask her to pray for us, she is NOT our salvation, the source of grace or our Savior. That prayer not only contradicts the Bible, but also the teaching of the Church on Mary. -mark -- Mark Meuer | Geometry Supercomputer Project | meuer@geom.umn.edu "Scientists have determined that the world's fastest animal, with a top speed of 120 ft/sec, is a cow that has been dropped from a helicopter." - Dave Barry
