Just like most churches try not to mention "works" as being connected with Salvation. In the process, they might miss some insight into the message and some new Christians would actually "get it" (talking about Salvation here) and realize that their works should be the after effect of their Salvation instead of just laying back and considering it complete.
Sorry, way off the subject. But, we shouldn't get bent outa' shape just because a Catholic happens to have an inspiration. I am intriqued by this discussion, but admit I know nothing about it, so show me some other explanation for the vision of the woman in the cloud and her being with child. I'm not familiar with that scripture.
I hope I'm not causing things to be closed down here. Just consider me an outsider on this post, looking in and realizing ya'll are getting ruffled feathers about the mention of Mary.

Sister, I don't think that is the case here! All we are trying to establish is this something that is taught by a perticular group or order other than scripture. We would have the same question if it were any teaching other than the scriptural evidence of such.
