We have gone over this before. Do you chastise people who ask friends and family to pray for/with them? Then there is no excuse to jump on those who ask their brothers and sisters in Christ to pray for/with them.Mary and Peter were amazing, faithful, servants of Jesus. They deserve our love, respect, and admiration. We are not, however, supposed to pray to or worship them.
It's as if some are desperate they are not doing all they could, and therefore must pull down those who seem to be going the extra mile. These prayers do not hurt you, and it does not hurt for you to forego certain types of prayer. Do so in peace and leave others in peace.
No one is arguing that Jesus is not a rock. He was called the cornerstone, the capstone, of our faith. Jesus named Peter a rock as well. He did not say Peter was the cornerstone, or even the capstone, he said Peter was a rock--a rock, he the cornerstone and the capstone, would build his Church with. Guess what, Jesus was obviously not intending to use just one rock! He would use an assembly of them! But it does seem that when he did find his first rock, he made note of it. And, gave that first rock the keys.I provided scriptural proof that God/Jesus is THE rock and you accuse me of being angry and hating Peter.
Shrug, you wish to reduce the Church and to reduce Peter. If that's not anger, what is it?
