These kind of discussions ARE STUPID
Mary is queen because she loves us?
This is the kind of religious nonsense that wastes time when you could be out helping the poor or defeating evil (like Obama)
IF you want to believe Mary is “Queen” then enjoy yourself- no amount of discussion here will make it true (or false)
I'm not Catholic, and so am agnostic on the issue. But I know that it helps in focusing millions of minds worldwide toward God and the essential Good. Toward helping the poor or defeating evil. Thus why would one take exception?
I believe that God's principle desire is that we act decently toward one another.
How does this detract?
Did you skip the second paragraph? Right there it says,
"Mary is Queen because of her unique association to her Son, both during her earthly journey as well as in heavenly glory. The great saint of Syria, Ephrem of Syria, said regarding the queenship of Mary that it derives from her maternity: She is Mother of the Lord, of the King of kings (cf. Is 9:1-6), and she points to Jesus as our life, salvation and our hope."
Reading is fundamental.
