"I curious as to why you don’t address the issue of Catholics making Mary equal to Christ...

Because your making the accusation doesn't make it any more true and in need of addressing than the last thousand times it has been refuted and demonstrated to not be Catholic doctrine.

Pax vobiscum.

I agree with Natural on this one. Mary is not equal with Jesus in Roman theology, it just looks that way from Roman prayer and practice.

She is not God, she is just the sinless Queen of heaven where all saving grace must flow through. She provides special protection from her Son's Justice against sinners because she softens His heart and He cannot deny her requests.

She hears prayers from all Catholics at the same time, makes infrequent visits to various back water places requesting special devotion to her, and on occasion can make the sun dance and turn rosary beads to Gold.

But she is definetely not equal to God or Jesus.
