There are so MANY errors and foul questions that come from this goofy Mariology that it's a wonder as many RCs believe it as they do.

Maybe we would want more "buffers" between us and God too, if we saw Him as angry because we were not measuring up. If we did not see ourselves as washed in the blood of the Lamb, thereby imputed with His righteousness, we may not want to approach Him either. We might create something more approachable to bow down to because God is Holy and cannot look at sin.

Thanks be to God that we can come to Him without worry of our status - we are in Christ. We can approach the throne of God in peace because Jesus is the propitiation for our sins. He is the Peacemaker and alone deserves our worship.

It doesn't have to stay that way. Just believe on Jesus alone.
