What a coincidence; I was waiting for the Maryphobs to show up!
Q. Name a theology thaht prohibits love, admiration, and venoration for anyting other than Christ.
A. Yours.
Get a clue: Christ's grace gives the faithful the capacity to MULTIPLY our ability to love, in fact it is the only thing that gives us the capacity to truly love one another. To be blessed by grace is to know that love is not limiting or limited. It is not only possible to love Mary, and all the saints; intensely it is the inevitable reflection of our cooperation with the free gift of grace.
If one has the capacity to elevate Mary to a level of veneration that you find uncomfortable, imagine how much further they elevate their worship of Christ.
Is you ability to love so limited that you have room only for Christ?
To be a Mariophobe would imply that I hated Mary and was afraid of her. I am neither afraid of her, nor do I hate her. She is, as the Bible says, blessed among women.

I love other people than Christ alone--I could not be a Christian if I did not love my brother, for example. I admire people, heroes of the faith like John Wesley, E. Stanley Jones, A.W. Tozer and W.E. Sangster. I even venerate them, to the degree that I admire them. I do not, however, pray to them or let them come anywhere near usurping God's place in my heart.

There are those who would 'venerate' Mary to the point of proclaiming her Co-mediatrix with Christ. Tell me how their veneration of Mary has elevated their worship of Christ. I am not convinced that the elevation of Men in one's sight elevates God still higher.
