Are we sure we know who Mary is?

Hello fabulous members of the board,

Are we sure she isn't Heavenly Mother? Is there a chance she is sitting up there on her throne next to Heavenly Father, equal in power and might?

Has this idea been considered by Mormon scholars?

Have a WONDERFUL Sunday night. Do something amazing before Monday starts!

Love,

Zee.

No I'm afraid I didn't. But I watched the BYU - U game with some ward members last night!

Polyandry. Sealed to god, just married to Joseph. He will only get to be an attending angel in the ck.

I suppose we could fix the Joseph problem by making him heavenly father in the flesh. Sort of a disguise?

But you can address prayers to her, right? (latria, dulia, hyperdulia and so on, but basically you can pray ...).

That was the tendency at the time.

Heavenly Mother was based on a misunderstanding of Catholicism. That is why Heavenly Mother became Eve.
