As a Protestant I had to look up your “baking cakes for Mary”. It is nothing of the sort. It is making special birthday cakes to celebrate Mary’s birthday. Now - if you wanted to rant on the idea of Mary being born without sin I would agree with you.

And while the idea of celebrating Mary’s birthday is a bit odd to me - it is a way of honoring her in the sense that “and all will call her blessed” - which she certainly was.

BUT - what I hear in that prayer of Mary’s is a very humble, servant attitude. And all the Glory being given to God.

Not to worry; ROME has this based covered a LOT of different ways!

Calling her BLESSED is just NOT enough for them.
