Catholics worship three gods, one of which is Mary. Your god is YHWH. Baal, his wife, and his son.
That is one of the stupidest things I've heard you say, and you know what I think of the rest of your theology.
Now I see why you don't denounce Reckart for his bigotry, hatred of others and hypocrisy -- you're every bit as guilty of them as he is.

That doesn't answer my question. In your opinion, are all those who profess to have had contact with the dead, in fact, dealing with demons instead?
You accept Jesus is your King, who else would be Queen but Mary? The darn Protestant anti-Marian protest.
Hey, the underlined isn't true, have you forgotten the anti-Christian threads you've started? Remember, in one of them, you spoke of attending the Atheist's Conference and loved it.
Plus, Speaking to the dead is witchcraft and God speaks against it.

JESUS did not say he was the "only" son of God. He taught that we can ALL do the things he did, and more, by tapping into our higher-selves, which are PART OF THE DIVINE.
Don't you dare presume to tell me what I do and do not revere. I revere ALL of life - including Jesus.
The conference I went to what for Thinking People - Agnostics, Atheists, Protestant Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Catholics --
And the break-out sessions talked about RELIGION IN GENERAL, particularly related to morality, through the lenses of different "religions". The conference itself had the overall topic of MORALITY. Morality does NOT come from religion. It is a basic human attribute, as we are "social animals" - we NEED each other to survive.
The threads I make are ANTI-FUNDAMENTALIST, ANTI-EXCLUSIONARY-DOGMA, and ANTI-FEAR-BASED. Hell does NOT EXIST. Teaching kids that they will go to hell is an atrocity - an abomination - it is ABUSE. Psychological and emotional ABUSE. And I will never support it. I respect what Jesus actually TAUGHT, NOT what the religious leaders, so-called "prophets", and usurpers of the teachings for control and manipulation.
People are not born sinners -
God is not a separate PERSON keeping score - God is ALL OF US, the universe, all things in it...
That, dear colbe, is what I revere.
When you are FREE of mortal sin (if you are water baptized in the name of the Trinity), God resides in your soul. We are not each Gods, divine.

Are you so immoral that you are incapable of seeing how nasty that is? And blasphemous. Yeshua is betrothed, and his Bride is his City, and her name is Zion, the spiritual Zion that comes down out of heaven as written in Revelation 21. Mary, doesn't have a high wall and surrounded by 12 gates.
You also have no idea of the relationship between the Ark, Temple and City or you could not speak of such wickedness against the Lord. You are also ignorant of the rites of marriage for Israelites.
You have the paganized trinity of Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz.
Again, do more research before coming at me with disgusting things.

So.....
when my neighbor recently adopted the boat that I had inherited from my Dad - which is a "thing" that my dad and I shared during precious times together....
and I say, "Hey Daddy! I know you're here - look how nicely it's cleaned up! We will go sailing on it SOON!" and I air-high-five with the unseen spirit of my Dad....
That is WITCHCRAFT?
Or when I remember a deceased pet, or friend, and I say outloud "Hi, Sherry", or "Hey Brian," or "Love you, Faith" - or I think "Daddy, what do I do now?" when I'm struggling with a problem....
That is witchcraft???
Ridiculous.

Again, you all can read in my last post and I gave example Scripturally to prove Mary IS Queen of Heaven and earth, we have example, the mother in the Old Testament is Queen.
I gave evidence, Scripture verse, 3 Kings 2:19 in the original Bible (Latin Vulgate) and the English translation (Douay-Rheims) of that Bible. Same verse is 1 Kings 2:19 in the KJV Bible. The original writings, so the first Bible shows a THRONE was placed for Solomon's mother. A Queen sits on a throne. Gotcha you. lonewolf, there are other references to the mother being queen in the Old Testament.
You accept Jesus is your King, who else would be Queen but Mary? The darn Protestant anti-Marian protest. In Revelation Chapter 12, the man-child is singular who is Jesus. The Dragon is singular who is Satan. Why is not the "woman" singular? Only Mary brought forth the man-child. Above any other meaning, the "woman" is Mary. A crown of 12 stars is royal. Mary is the Queen of Heaven and earth.
The faith, there is only one (Eph 4:5) is referred in the feminine. So what, we've been talking about the Queen is the King's mother and she would wear a crown and the ONLY person to bring the man-child forth was Mary most holy. You gotta love Mary, how happy it will make our Lord. Reject the anti-Mary fools.
The verses in Zachariah, chapter 5, whoever the two women are, they may be wicked but there are many, many, holy women in the Old Testament and the New Testament.

The Jews had a habit of worshiping Ishtar before Yahweh demanded that they stop.

The book of Jeremiah is in the Old Testament. Read Jeremiah, chapters 7 and 44.
P.S. I won't be debating you again on why Yahweh IS NOT Ba'al. Anyone who's done their research knows better regardless of how many times you try to argue it.
LORD (in all caps) means Yahweh in the Bible and has absolutely NOTHING to do with Ba'al.
