Okay. Let's take it carefully.

You wrote
The Word never intended for anyone to even come up with the idea that Christ’s mother was to be elevated above Christ.

When I asked, "Who does?" you answered:
The post I was responding to does.

Here's the entire post. Would you be so kind as to show me exactly where it elevates Mary above Christ?

It's all very well to take recourse to the usual litany of accusations centered around rubber, but if the general charge is not reduced and clearly related to the specific thing you are complaining about, then it just passes me by.

Is the mother of the head NOT the mother of the Body?
Is Mary NOT the mother of Jesus the Christ?
Is the Church NOT the Body of which Christ is the head?
I don't see the wildness or the rubber.

In related news, I am astonished the a psychologist questions the bonding of infant with mother as important in the development of the ability to love.

that I’m a very FIERCE proponent of dads, particularly, but both parents doing whatever it takes to avoid any REACTIVE ATTACHMENT DISORDER

AT ALL.

IIRC, I even posted a whole thread about the topic.

“When I asked, “Who does?””

netmilsmom asked that question in post 204. Are you admitting here that “netmilsmom” is just one of your sock puppets?

“Would you be so kind as to show me exactly where it elevates Mary above Christ?”

I did this already in post 327. Here it is again for your edification:

“Perhaps you are blind to it but post 182 elevates Mary by placing her as the head of the Head of the Body of Christ.

It is concealed by replacing the word “head” with the word “mother”. The word “mother” is a title that denotes authority. God Himself takes the title of Father. It grants Mary authority she doesn’t have in Scripture. In Scripture she has no authority at all.

Humans that in their hearts do not love God and have turned away from His Son, have created an idol for themselves that they prefer instead. A woman. They much prefer to pray to and worship and love this woman idol than God.”
