That’s a whole lot of rationalization and explanations of why Mary should be elevated to that level.

Christ alone died for our sins and only God can forgive us for the sins that we commit against Him, just as forgiveness for anything has to come from the person sinned against.

Mary is not Deity. I did not sin against her, but against God. Only Jesus died for us. The forgiveness has to come from Him through that perfect sinless sacrifice.

Exactly what Catholics belive.
