why do evangelicals or protestants dislike the image of Virgin Mary as Mother of

[Nochanceswithoutme]

Jesus Christ who is God? Mary is absent in the Christmas things of the protestantism why is that? why can't they accept jesus is God then Mary gave birth to Jesus who is true man and true God no?
it's not necessary to pray her but she was Mother of God.. and she will be called according to herself the blessed for generations

 

[ForeverFixedAtZero]

Mary gave birth to God?! Jesus Christ, how big was her vagina?!

 

[HailSatan]

Christianity is pure evil. Hail Lord Satan, the worlds true Lord and Savior.

 

[marcopohlo]

Shouldn't we care more about his message than his mother?

 

[NarxPancake]

That's one less character who defies the laws of rationality.

 

[ChristineSundae]

We accept her, we just don't pray to her, nor do we idolize her.

Mary Magdelene and Mary the sister of Lazarus were more important

God could have chosen ANY womb to bear His Son. She was chosen to conceive by the Holy Ghost. She was a chosen vessel to carry the Christ. She WAS blessed and will always be considered so by Christians.

Why don't Catholics understand that we don't want Mary or anybody else interfering in our prayer & worship and, that Christ is our only mediator?

not trying to be mean, but this has been a dead issue for centuries

Marry is the mother of Jesus. Jesus is not God.

Only one flawed verse in the entier bible says Jesus is God. Countless others prove that Jesus is not God.

It is a clear contridiction but I think it is funny how a human vote is what decided whether the Catholics would call Jesus God or not.

 

[Jesuslovesatheiststoo]

Really? You actually found the time to take a look at the Christmas "things" of all protestants, wow.

 

[cyannan]

I think you are mistaken. I am a Christian Protestant and all of my Nativity scenes include Mary, Mary and the Magnificat are included in worship as the prophecies of a virgin birth.

Protestants donot, however, worship or pay particular attention of any icon of the virgin Mary, possibly considering it idol worship. Mary was a human chosen by the Lord to give birth to His Son, not a diety of any kind.

 

[NancyD]

We do accept that but I don't worship her or light candles to her, etc. She is not absent in the Christmas things. She's always in the picture.

 

[Snowbird1]

Yes, we believe that Jesus is God and Mary gave birth to Jesus who is true man and true God and many Christmas cards portray Mary but we have never worshipped Mary, because Christmas is about the birth of Jesus the Saviour of the world, who we are commanded to worship, so He must take precedence not Mary who was blessed above all women but is, nevertheless a human being and not someone to be worshipped

 

[pittyakker]

I don't know which protestant sects you mean, but Mary is present in all the ones I have seen
