Bias

This article reads as if it were penned by a Catholic apologist, with zero citations or defences. Most notably, assertions that the veneration of Mary, mother of Christ, can be found in the early inscriptions. 2A00:23C8:6FD7:C801:7CFD:3CE8:488A:F643 (talk) 19:19, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, that's because it's taken directly from the (out-of-copyright) 1913 Catholic Encyclopedia. A lot of the more obscure articles on Christianity are like that; fixing them is a big project. Definitely encourage looking up some sources and making edits!— Moriwen (talk) 19:21, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A pretty odd objection, as the Virgin Mary is mentioned precisely once the article, without any detail. In general the article is pretty free of dates, and often vague about the period it describes - when is "early" exactly? But at least part of the article covers period centuries after veneration of the VM was dogma. Johnbod (talk) 20:27, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
