Oversight in Assumption of Mary
editIn the Wikipedia article "Assumption of Mary", there appears to me a undoubtedly involuntary misstatement of Catholic doctrine. It says: "Traditions relating to the Assumption: The Catholic Church has two different traditions concerning the assumption/dormition of Mary: in the first, she rose from the dead after a brief period and then ascended into heaven; in the second, she was 'assumed' bodily into heaven before she died." Now it is certainly not true that any tradition exists that Mary ASCENDED into Heaven. Only Jesus has done that. And the second tradition (of her Assumption) does not exclusively refer to having occurred BEFORE she died, as the same article makes clear later on. Please investigate and correct if appropriate.

- You're right, she did not ascend but was assumed. Thank you.Rafaelosornio (talk) 01:24, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

Assumption of Our Lady
editThe Assumption of the Virgin Mary occurred on the Gregorian astronomic 15 August 44 CE (its Julian 17 AD). Its probable time is 9:00 IST (7:00 GMT). She was 60 years old.

Scriptural sources issue
edit- The pope did not advance any specific text as proof of the doctrine, but one senior advisor, Father Jugie, expressed the view that Revelation 12:1–2 was the chief scriptural witness to the assumption.
but later in the same section we have:
- Among the many other passages noted by Pope Pius were the following …
I'm assuming the latter mention of Pius XII was meant to refer to Father Jugie? -- Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 06:01, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
- As I read the source, it refers to Pope Pius.--Medusahead (talk) 10:49, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
"body and flesh" is a typo, right?
editI'm afraid to mix something up here, but I saw this phrase in Google search results and it struck me as odd. It should be "body and soul", right? Karikaturkin (talk) 10:25, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- The news page talks about the resurrection of body and soul, but it's wrong. Maybe was a typo. As far as I know, Catholics do not believe in the resurrection of the soul, only of the body and the flesh. For a soul to be resurrected it has to die, but according to Catholic theology the soul is immortal.--Rafaelosornio (talk) 17:55, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
