[Dr. Eckleburg]

If the RCC stopped its teachings on Mary with the thought that she was a great example of Christian charity and love, that would be wonderful.

Sadly, the RCC carries its teachings into an idolatrous worship/veneration/glorification/prayers to a woman who was exactly as fallen as you or me, and who was saved exactly the same way you and I are saved -- by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.

No bodily assumption into heaven of Mary. No sinless conception of Mary. No supernatural intact virginity of Mary after Christ's birth. No worship/veneration/glorification/prayers to anyone other than the Triune God alone.

What is this creepy protestant obsession with Mary's hymen?

That is your sad interpretation of Mary. NO WHERE, in Catholic teaching does it say we are saved through Mary. To insinuate otherwise is slander. The fact that we don't think of her like some meaningless Greek statue, doesn't mean that we place her above God. Obviously our love of God is a little too passionate for your tastes, that doesn't give you the right to spread calumnious lies against us.
