Catholics don’t “worship” Mary, she is honored as being the mother of Christ. You’re also told in the Bible to emmulate Christ in everything you do. He honored and obeyed his mother (Mary). But you don’t?

did He make a statue of Mary?

did He kneel before her?

did He pray to her?

did He light candles to her?

did He tell us to rely upon her for our salvation by going through her?

did He mention anything about wearing a scapular to avoid hell as the mary apparitions have done?

did He invoke her as Mediatrix, Advocate, Benefactress, Helper?

did He say none can come to Him unless they go through Mary?

did He ever tell us to pray to Mary?

Christians recognize the unique place of Mary in the Word.

Of all the Hebrew girls she was chosen to be the mother of Christ.

She is the mother of His brothers and sisters.

She was a sinner in need of salvation like the rest of humanity.

She is the wife of Joseph.

All generations will count her blessed for what she did.

“Woman behold thy son, son behold thy mother.”

Those who wrestle with the meaning of the Sacred Scriptures, who do not view their interpretation through the eyes of Faith, they don’t understand what these words from the Word Incarnate mean.
