Can you provide Biblical evidence to support your claim that Mary is not superior to Eve, when Mary is clearly referred to by the archangel Gabriel as "blessed among women," what other meaning could this have?

A woman who has 10 children, naturally, is blessed among women. It doesn't mean that she is anymore than that. A woman that has a loving husband is blessed among women, it doesn't mean that she is more blessed than them or that she is....See De Montfort. All it means is blessed. I'm blessed among men because I have 8 healthy kids and the most excellent of wives and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. But don't start praying to me, even after I die.
