Marie du jour, 22 May: St. Edith Stein
In Mary, we do not see the Lord, but we see her always by the Lord’s side
Her service is rendered directly to Him: through the prayer of intercession, she intercedes with Him for humankind; she receives from His hands graces to be bestowed and does indeed transmit them.
She does not represent the Lord but assists Him. Her position is thus analogous to that of Eve by the side of the first Adam. But Mary is beside Jesus, not for His sake but for ours.

Uncover the blame game in the Garden of Eden! Adam, Eve, and a sneaky serpent take center stage. Watch as we navigate the fallout of the forbidden fruit, with hilarious finger-pointing and divine intervention. Who's really to blame?

You know, I feel compelled to say that had it been me there in the garden on the fateful day, had I been the one there with the Serpent instead of Eve being offered the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil with the tempting words "Surely, you will not die".
I know I'd look that serpent right in the eye and say this:
"But I will die, and don't call me Shirley".

@Raccoon Well, God believes sex/gender is binary.
Genesis 1:27
Genesis 5:2
And Jesus (who is God in the flesh) believes it as well
Matthew 19:4
I don't even have to bring up St. Paul, since I know you people don't like what he has to say.
I think I'd rather agree with God than with the so-called accepting Christians who pervert his word.
Today's pick: The Creation of Eve (1529) - Lucas van Leyden. #art #LucasVanLeyden #AdamAndEve
I call this "Mass Mind Denial" #MassMindDenial
People who can't grasp why "Apple Computers" icon and name is after the Mass Mind Meme #MassMindMeme / #MonoMythOpCode of #AdamAndEve Adam and Eve. Cultural programming. The Bible is one of the most printed books in human history.
Denial of the conditioning by society.

No matter how righteous we are/appear to be, ALL sin Each/Everyday. What is sin? It's falling short of God's perfect standard of righteousness.
When it comes to acknowledging our sins before God: Are we MORE like #AdamAndEve who made excuses or Are we MORE like #David who openly confessed his sins of adultery w/ #Bathsheba having her husband murdered?
We all blame others at times for our sins. Exercise faith in #Jesus & God will #forgive our sins.
