Why does a Roman Catholic Mass only forgive venial sins (less serious) but not mortal sins (serious)? Why can only a Romanist priest forgive mortal sins through confession & penance? If Peter was infallible in faith & morals why did Paul confront him to his face in Galatians 2:11? Was this confrontation not a matter of faith & morals?

More questions for devout Romanists:
1. If Peter has the Power to forgive sins as the RCC declares, why did Peter not use this power to forgive Simon the Sorcerer, but told him to repent and pray to God for forgiveness?
2. Where does it even hint in Scripture that the Virgin Mary was sinless in light of Luke 1:47? Does this verse not tell us that Mary needed the same Calvary redemptive blood as everyone else?
3. Why did Mary offer up a sin offering in Luke 2:22-24 (c.f. Leviticus 12:2-6) if she was really sinless?
4. Can you give to me any Bible verse that tells us that Mary was assumed into heaven bodily after her death?
5. Since Mary died does this not prove that she was a sinner since the wages of sin is death?
