See, that’s part of the point I was trying to make before — we think all those things of Mary (we also can appreciate poetry), but we apprehend God as so much infinitely greater that there’s no comparison! Your very concept of God — and comcomitantly your idea of worship if you think the litany would be more appropriate to God — must be very stunted by our standards. And you must live in a much narrower, greyer world!

I imagine the simplicity of the sufficiency of Christ seems exactly that way to you. It seems to be a very large part of why that simplicity is rejected by the RCC.

I think it's an inexhaustible mystery, utterly incomprehensible in its fullness to human minds. In God's mercy, we can grasp at least the rudiments even in our fallen state.

You seem to think such mysteries are as "simple" as, say, a recipe for quick bread or a simple algebra formula, something that you can actually know completely.
