The salvation of humanity was accomplished by God’s only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. The Passion and Death of Christ, our sole Redeemer, was not only sufficient but ‘superabundant’ satisfaction for human guilt and the consequent debt of punishment

God willed that this work of salvation be accomplished through the collaboration of a woman, while respecting her free will (Gal. 4:4).

Mary’s cooperation with God is in NO WAY EQUAL to Christ’s work. It was of a completely different, lower level, but necessary nonetheless

Never said it was equal. Simply that her participation was voluntary and that she chose to be Christ’s mother.
