“exalts Mary and the Pope as if they were God himself”
Except that Catholics don’t do that. We honor Mary, not worship her. Look at Mary’s Magnificat: “For He has had regard for the humble state of His bondslave;For behold, from this time on all generations will count me blessed” (Luke 1:48)

Besides, even if you’re allergice to what you think the Catholic Church teaches, you do realize that the birth of Christ automatically includes Mary, don’t you?
