In reply to LadyDoc:
You erroneously equate the term “Co-redemptrix” with “Co-equal”. This is incorrect, because “Co-redemptrix” means redeeming with Christ, not equal to Him. He is divine, She is a creature, and He chose Her before all time to give Him the flesh with which He redeemed us, and with which He still remains for all eternity, beginning from that point in time, and from which He will examine and judge us. Without this flesh, freely given by Her, there is no redemption. If this is not “Co-redemption”, please define what you think redemption is all about or how it took place.

Oh, I agree with you. But my point is that by using “co” that it will be misunderstood.

Mary is the first “co redeemer” and as Paul pointed out, we are all “co redeemers” when we unite ourselves with Christ.

But it is a shame that the term will be used for misunderstanding and ridicule of the complex idea.
