She is just another dumbed down nun. Unfortunately and too often nuns are not well educated in theology and hardly ever in philosophy.

The Church has not officially taught that Mary is to be worshiped. Mary rather is to be honored and her intercession with Jesus and God sought.

I think this nun needs more education before she writes.

That is no better, since the bible clearly teaches that Jesus is our untercessor. And where in the Bible does it say she is to be honored? Yes, I understand she was blessed, but that was in the vein of how our wold today would consider a lotto winner “blessed”. I am “blessed” that my wife consented to marry me. I am “blessed” by my children. I was “blessed” when I got a job a few years ago when the rest of the guys in my position didn’t. None of these mean I am to be “honored” more than any other flesh and blood human.
