I am sorry I still do not understand what is nonsense. I have no problem with Protestants not believing Marian dogma of the Catholic Church. But surely using the example of Mary’s faith as a model for our own Christian lives is not nonsense. I think we could do no better than to follow these words.
“ Let it be done according to Thy Will”
“ My Soul Does Magnify The Lord...”
“ Do whatever He a tells you”

All show that Mary loved God, trusted in Him for her salvation and put His will before all else. Even at great personal pain for herself. She is worthy of honor because she is mother of Our Lord. I don’t expect non Catholics to suddenly start saying the Ave. But it is too bad that they see any regard given to Mary as a threat to Christ. How much threat is it to Christ to see her life as Catholics see it. Glorious evidence of the wonders of God’s grace.
