"Nowhere in the bible does it call for followers of Christ to be the co-redeemers. And Christ’s sufferings lack nothing and therefore need nothing."

Are you calling St. Paul a liar?

"Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ on behalf of his body, which is the church,"
- Col 1:24

"Praying to Mary is worship of her when we can go to God directly."

Do you also accuse St. Paul of rejecting the meadiatorship of Jesus? What about St. James or St. John? St. Paul on many occasions tells us to make intercessory prayers (Rom 15:30; 2 Cor 1:11; Eph 6:18-19; Col 4:3; 1 Thes 5:17,25; 2 Thes 3:1; Philemon 1:22; Heb 13:18-19), so does James (Jam 5:14,16) and John (1 Jn 5:16).

Paul himself was constantly praying intercessory prayers (2 Cor 13:7,9; Col 1:3,9; 2 Thes 1:11; 2 Tim 1:3), taking it upon himself to play this intercessory role. John did too (3 Jn 1:2).

I am accusing YOU of misinterpreting the bible. And Mary IS NOT Jesus, who is God.
