Now there's an honest, sincere, non-loaded question if I ever saw one.
It’s a sincere question. Because of Christ, we can approach the Father directly. Why would we ever go indirectly?
Of course I don’t even believe there is an indirect route to God. I think all of those prayers to Mary are a waste of time, little different than praying to Zeus. Based on the authority of Scripture I know Christ is the sole mediator between God and man and that the idea of praying through Mary is an invention of Rome.
The truth is we are never likely to agree on any of this. If memory serves, you are a priest and I don’t believe in the priesthood.
