Others may be less obvious but by dint of their inventions...
...pleasure to learn that Protestant faiths are changing their mind about the Virgin Mary. She is, indeed, the Mother of God. Though Mary is honored by God, she is not a goddess, and Roman Catholicism, to which I belong, does not worship Mary as a divine person. Catholics revere Mary the same as they love an elder, affectionate and powerful sister, and that is enough to give them happiness.
