[Claud]

Yet there remains this inexplicable desire to elevate Mary, the mortal, biological mother of Jesus, into equivalency with Him as participating in the godhead with all the divine powers implied therein.

Well, any such desire is rank heresy obviously, and elevating Mary to the Godhead has no place whatsoever in the Christian faith. But we must be careful, we must be *very very careful* about ascribing heresy/idolatry/blasphemy to practices that we do not really understand.

[Elsiejay]

At the very least, such elevating is un-Christian.
