While granting that Jesus is mentioned a lot more, Mary is mentioned 54 times, not "about 10."

My concordance only shows about 20 "Mary" and only half of those are referring to the Virgin Mary.

A simple word count of Mary mentioned in the New testament won't do. You must account for numerous "other" Mary's, Mary Magdalene is prominent in this "other" group.
