Amon's provided the answer last week. USSS needed the week to establish a secure perimeter. Trump was always going to be indicted, the real question is why did he supposedly tell a reporter after the Waco rally that Bragg was going to drop it? Never made sense.
It's not praying to Mary… It's called an 'intercession'. You are asking her to vouch for you/put in a good word on your behalf to the 'big guy'. Literally, break down the 'Hail Mary' line by line, verse by verse, it's not technically a prayer, it's a salutation, acknowledgement of her status, request to pray for you.
If a person asks Mary to save their soul or something, that would be completely different.
Per the Catholic church, Mary is a fictitious persona yet they made the belief in her 'DOGMA'?
You pray to God, all others (including Christ) are intercessions. Christ said 'not to pray to him but his Father'. It's a damn confusing statement since Christ is classified as part of the Divine Holy Trinity but I didn't write the bible not formulate the Christian faith as a whole.
Anons here convinced me Juan O'Savin was a 'shill'. I find a Magic 8 ball can literally be as reliable as most the pundits.
I'm tickled when anyone chooses to pray these days. I only jumped in because I was once 'cornered' over the 'Catholics pray to Mary' & I was stopped cold. Picked up the phone talked to my father & he reminded me to think about each prayer & remember it's an 'intercession'.
Don't forget, bigot isn't a bad thing, I'm a pro-life bigot & proud of it.
FWIW, Catholicism, as constructed, in it's original writing had the potential to save more souls than any other flavor of Christianity. Then came 'Vatican II' or the Jewish apologists & communist infiltration & well, yeah it's not so great these day.
The 'papal seat is vacant' at the moment but that's how they wanted it.
