>Mary was clearly a good woman, chosen by God, who featured prominently in the virgin birth, being that virgin. Beyond that, she has no religious role in Christianity.<

I visited your link, and followed each footnote referencing Mary to Biblical passages, and find no Biblical support for specific, special religious veneration of her. If there are more compelling passages, please direct me to them. Otherwise, I see nothing other than an edict of the Vatican, espousing the particular beliefs of the Catholic church.
