See, and my LCMS Lutheran ass believes that you only need three things to be a complete Christian: Grace alone, faith alone, scripture alone.
All the rest you mention (the other 5 sacraments, the assistance of Mary, the saints, etc...) are just pretty wrapping paper. Nice to look at, but they have absolutely nothing to do with the gift that's inside. My boy Martin Luther felt the same way, which is why he left the Catholic church.
I admire your conviction and knowledge of your beliefs, but you're like that annoying kid in the back of the class who has her hand up every question and has to show off just exactly how much she knows while the rest of the class just groans and rolls their eyes at her.
