Holy Bible scriptures from your post:
Matthew 12:47 Someone told Jesus, "Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you."

Matthew 12:48 Jesus replied to him, "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?"

Matthew 12:49 Pointing to His disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers.

Matthew 12:50 For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother."

Kind of evens the playing field.

Jesus was very careful in doing all he could to keep people from lifting Mary up as a perpetual virgin in the role of intercessor between us and Huim and, like Jesus, being taken bodily into heaven.

Blessed though she certainly is, she is one of us.

Yes, she is. And JESUS knew there would be a certain element who would life her up.

Here's another incident where He taught who is blessed .....

As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, "Blessed is the mother who gave You birth and nursed You." Luke 11:27

Jesus replied, "But even more blessed are all who HEAR the Word of God and OBEY IT." Luke 11:28

And the secular worldly 'church' not only REFUSES to Hear and Obey - they do the exact opposite. And they claim to be the church that Jesus started and has a pope (who they claim are infallible) who has inscribed on his gown - 'I'm all yours Mary'! How is that for out and out deliberately deceiving their flock.

Yes, Jesus taught what He knew people didn't know then and for all succeeded generations to come - so no one can deceive those who seek after TRUTH.
