My position all along has been that Mary is a very humble servant of God - as is Peter, Paul, Moses, Abraham and so on. And for that reason I believe she would be uncomfortable with some of the honor given to her, e.g. Queen of Heaven, Mother of God, etc. Of a Truth, she is the "Blessed Mother of the Incarnate Word" - but going further, I believe makes her uncomfortable.
Likewise, I cannot imagine Peter being comfortable with a title like His Holiness. He and Paul both were brought to their knees to serve Christ.
I feel the same about Moses and Abraham who were highly exalted by the Jews, I cannot imagine either of them being comfortable with all that attention.
In fact, if they were all right here participating on this forum I would see each of them Mary, Moses, Abraham, Peter, Paul saying pretty much the same words the angel said here in Revelation:
Worship God!
Maranatha, Jesus!
Then saith he unto me, See [thou do it] not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God. Rev 22:19
Other than that, I have nothing to say - because all of these people - whether Christian or Jew - who venerate these fellowservants by all appearances themselves do it out of love and humility.

Excellent points as usual. Thanks.
