Mark 3:31 Then His brothers and His mother came, and standing outside they sent to Him, calling Him. 32 And a multitude was sitting around Him; and they said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers[e] are outside seeking You.”
33 But He answered them, saying, “Who is My mother, or My brothers?” 34 And He looked around in a circle at those who sat about Him, and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers! 35 For whoever does the will of God is My brother and My sister and mother.”

Luke 11: 27 And it happened, as He spoke these things, that a certain woman from the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!”
28 But He said, “More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”

Matt 1: 25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

You have collected some popular proof-texts. You haven’t read and pondered much of what the Old and the New Testaments both teach about Mary. The book of Revelation says that she is the mother of all who believe in Christ. Do you accept Mary as your mother?

Get the book BEHOLD YOUR MOTHER, by Tim Staples.

http://www.amazon.com/Behold-Your-Mother-Historical-Doctrines/dp/1938983807/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1434740178&sr=8-1&keywords=behold+your+mother

Once you have read that book, get back to me about whether there really are “zero” verses that teach that Mary is without sin, that she was assumed into heaven, etc.

If you DON’T get that book, then you will be choosing to live the rest of your life being eaten alive by the guilty secret that you didn’t have the courage or intellectual honesty to investigate any further.
