Being Mother of the man, JESUS isn't good enough for Catholics.

And His once death on the Cross wasn't good enough, they recreate it daily.

And Jesus, The Word isn't good enough, they need tradition and doctrine of man.

And His salvation by grace through faith isn't good enough, they add their works.

Jesus is the Mediator but they go to Mary or the saint of their desire.

Since God is transcendent, the Eucharistic sacrifice is an event outside of time and is a participation in the original event.

We recreate Christ’’s sacrafice daily to remind ourselves of the selfless love he holds for all of us, Jesus is More than Good enough, but we are humans with human failings, the church provides us with a union with God in fellowship with others, the salvation he provided us is something we cherish and in works we offer up ourselves to others in order to glorify Him. Christ is God. Mary is his mother. Mary is fully human and as such is a mediator between us and God. We pray to God and Mary.Praying to The Blessed Virgin in NO way diminishes our reverence to our Lord.
