Very true, and as a rule dissing a man’s mother will get you in trouble! Some on here don’t understand that! The real problem is that Catholics understand the relationship between Mary and Jesus, so for the protestants, it’s gotta be wrong! After all every one of them can be lead by the Holy Spirit and come to their own conclusions regarding scripture and somehow they’ll all be different and all be correct. Not sure how that all works.

The real problem is Roman Catholicism has so elevated Mary to a demi-goddess status they can't see their own error.
You stated....”The real problem is that Catholics understand the relationship between Mary and Jesus”....
Well actually that is the stumbling block for them in having a true and full relationship with Jesus Christ. Jesus clearly stated, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.John 14:6 ...” For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus.1 Timothy 2:5
For Christ did not enter a holy place made with hands, a mere copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now ‘to appear in the presence of God for us’ Hebrews 9:23-24
Plus Mary was with the disciples in the upper room that very first Pentecost.
Plus seeing a lot of YOPIOS here.
Respectfully speaking the truth about Mary is not dissing her. Making a goddess of her is more demeaning of Mary than people recognizing her more limited role without exaggeration as spelled out in Scripture.
Some on here dont understand that!
If people claim my mother was the 1963 American League Most Valuable Player, why would I be upset that someone else corrects them?

Protestants don't have a problem agreeing with Catholics when it aligns with Scripture (for example, the Trinity). Evangelicals do not stand with Catholics when their speculations wander far from Scripture as much of mariology does.
Rome's invented 'Mary' is NOT the Mother of Jesus.
Now is the perfect time to tell us that the councils that Rome has assembled over the years all ended in UNANIMOUS votes for all the practices that Rome now performs.
Sure, because God is an easily offended, touchy, petty, vindictive person, just like the rest of mankind.
Better toe the line of He's gonna zap you for sure.
Prove that we are *all different* in our interpretation.
Prove that all Catholics agree 100% on every last point of doctrine.
Here's an easy one. Is Frank a legitimate pope?
