Sounds to me like the Green-Eyed Monster of jealousy has raised it's ugly head. It explains a lot of animosity toward Mary.
I do not wish to be drawn into a debate with metmom. I said many months ago I will not respond to her because of another time we were in a discussion which turned ugly on her part and I have no wish to put myself in a position where I might commit a sin out of anger or defensiveness nor to be used by her to curry favor with the usual suspects or puff herself up.
I told her at the time I would never respond to her again and I haven’t and will not do so now.
I ping her here only out of courtesy and respect for the rules and because in this instance I am going to defend what she wrote, though I don’t disagree with your assessment.
She is correct in what she wrote, but it is not that which makes Mary unique, singular and deserving of our love and devotion. God has honored Mary in a way He has not honored us and so we honor her in a way we honor no other.
She alone bore the Savior of the world in her womb and it is from her that He received His earthly flesh. That makes her unique and it is because of that she received what we hope for in a way we do not. Grace at the moment of her conception and assumption into heaven, body and soul at the moment of her death.
