Mike writes “reuters.co.uk Reports Shortly before the day that made her famous, France’s Roman Catholic Church has stood up for the Virgin Mary by denouncing two new books that question whether she was a virgin when she gave birth to Jesus Christ.
In statements made as Christians prepared for Christmas, it has decried the best-selling “Mary, The Mother Of Jesus” by Catholic journalist Jacques Duquesne and “Mary, A Dogmatic Journey” by Dominican theologian Dominique Cerbelaud.
“The two books gravely offend the Catholic faith,” declared Bishop Jean-Louis Brugues, head of the French bishops’ doctrinal commission that recently reviewed the two works.”
