Fair enough. All I was going to ask you was at what point do you think the adoration of Mary changed into her taking on some of the role Jesus told us was his.
With all due respect, a loaded question IMO. But I'll answer anyway: I don't believe Mary has usurped any authority of Jesus, now, or ever.
If I did, I would have to leave the CC. The next best Church after the Catholic is the Orthodox IMO, so, even if one could demonstrate that "[at some point] the adoration of Mary changed into her taking on some of the role Jesus told us was His", then such an opponent wouldn't gain much (in terms of making me leave an apostolic Church).
