That church points to Christ! A humble and contrite heart he will not ignore. You read nonsense from outside then make judgements. May God forgive you you know not what you say!!

Christ will honor his Mother whether you like it or not. He wanted a Mother. He has a Mother. Notice not past tense. He was seen as the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the World by The apostle John(Book of Revelation). Which means in eternity He has the wounds as a human from the ordeals of the cross and passion. Because he is still human as sinless for all , he is still bound to the ten commandments as sinless Lamb. One of which is Honor thy Mother and Father forever.

When He honors His Mother he Honors himself. Why because he bound himself to the sinless life(commandments). He made the rules not I. He is the same God of the commandments.

Revelation 5

Ver. 6. I saw....a Lamb standing as it were slain, with the prints and marks of its wounds. It was of this lamb (i.e. of our Saviour Jesus Christ) that St. John the Baptist said: "Behold the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sins of the world." (John i. 29.) (Witham) --- Here again Jesus Christ is plainly marked out, the Lamb of God, the victim of expiation, who by his death has reconciled us with his Father; and who, even in heaven, bears the marks of his passion, and by the wounds therein received continually inclines his Father to shew us mercy. He has seven horns, as so many crowns and marks of his omnipotence; and seven eyes, to represent his infinite knowledge and wisdom. (Calmet) --- Having seven horns and seven eyes, (to signify his power and his knowledge,) which are the seven spirits subject to Christ. See Chap. i. 4. It is observed that in the Revelation of St. John, the number seven is divers times applied to signify a multitude, and a number implying perfection, and three and a half for a small number. Thus
