What did I do?

You posted a little truth concerning Mary and her overrated roll in liberating women.

My pleasure -- it's one of three things that I cannot stand about Catholicism: (1) deifying Mary, (2) Praying to saints/angles; (3) the tendency to elevate "Tradition" to a superior level than Scripture... {the "infallibility" of the Pope stems directly from #3, so to count that would be counting-twice.}

I believe all three of those are deadly traps of idolatry and even Jesus spoke against the last one:
Mark 7:13 -- "Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that."
