I’m just pointing to the fact that she was just a vessel. She is in no way an advocate between me and God, as many believe.

Now that's just silly. Mary added nothing unique to Jesus' birth or life. She was of David's line and a virgin. There were plenty of other woman who would have filled that position just fine.

That's like saying how can you cook pizza without a microwave. You use an oven or a toaster oven or even a stove top. The microwave adds no nutritional value to the pizza.

Other than Jesus, there is no person in the Bible could could not have been replaced.

You might as well ask how we would be saved without Pontius Pilate.

God would have chosen someone else.

What? if Mary would have said no, God would have packed up and went home???

What if the mule Mary rode in on stumbled and broke one of it's legs, and Mary fell and had a miscarriage???

What if the Red Sea had never parted??? There wouldn't be any Mary to worry about...

God brought Israel thru a couple thousand years of history but when it came to Mary, who incidentally was prophesied in the OT, God left it to chance??? Of course not...

Stop with the fairy tales...
