I may join the Catholic Church to be confirmed and partake of the Eucharist, but I will be exploring Orthodoxy.

Since Catholics believe that Orthodox are valid, immaculate conception doesn't seem necessary for Heaven.

If I get my slothful ass moving and go to church as I should do, I'll light a candle for you, if you don't mind though you could DM your first name to be more official though

So this is my understanding:

You could join the eastern branch of catholicism

Mary was conceived. At some point in the womb, she was cleansed by the Spirit.

I suppose but @Ragnarok would be better to guide you I believe

She was kept in a state of Grace

And she birthed Jesus. (She may or may not have sinned before being assumed into Heaven.)

The Pope claims that after her earthly life she was lifted into Heaven, which implies she died a natural death.

Only Christ, by will of his own power, ascended into heaven while alive.

For us, is that she never commited a personal sin but she had the original sin as only Christ was the only un-sinful person to place foot in Earth

I don't think it matters

In her prayer she claims that she will be praised for generations

It's only a small scriptural view difference

So, it's valid to look at her as the Mother of Mankind.

For us she is praised daily

Because Christ tells us she is our mother

We do venerate her highly here at least in Greece

She shouldn't be worshipped, though.

But I agree, she should be looked at as a person for guidance. Christ tells us she is our mother. If she is our mother, then we must honor her as commanded.

Worshiping is a strong word

@Iakovos

Makes sense.

I'm off to sleep mate, cya

After reading what the Rosary is I find that its prayers might be useful.

The Rosary isn't sinful or unscriptural, but simply asking for someone to pray for us. Early Christians prayed for the dead, why can't we pray for Mary to pray for us?

The true kingdom is a Christian Kingdom, with Christ as our King.

A theocratic absolute monarchy
