Finally something on topic

Given that Our Lady of Victory (festem BMV de victoria) was titled to
celebrate crushing Islamic forces in a naval battle (Lepanto)

she has always been called on to justify crushing some other group, that
presumably did not have the "in" that those invoking her presumed.

When I was in elementary school at Our Lady of Lourdes I wrote an essay
about sailors disputing as to whether "our lady of victory" or "our
lady queen of peace" would show up in response to their prayers.

I was a heretic from way back
