[Robe]

As a Catholic and former alter boy......I find this repulsive and sacrilegious..
she is no more Christ like that anyone else...
You are dancing on the edge.....

[Mark in the Old South]

It is called making a comparison. The Catholic Church compares many flawed people as a type of Christ, Adam, Noah, Abraham, Issac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Arron, David, Solomon, Jonah and several others, nineteen or so Old Testament characters in fact. I haven't been Catholic for long but I have already heard several sermons from more than one Priest making similar comparisons. All people who suffer are called to unite their suffering to the Sacred suffering of Christ as an act of contrition for sin and the conversion of sinners.
