The written scripture is all we have to verify truth! If you want to make big stink about the apochrypha vs’s KJV...fine...even the apocrypha gives no written support for Mary worship(or adoration or “honoring”...whatever)!

And you just sabotaged your own argument by conflating all of those terms. If words have no meaning then why the appeal to the written Word?

The Catholics argue about the Apocrypha being scripture and why don’t the Protestants accept such AS such. That is another argument besides the unsettled controversies regarding mary. I don’t see how the one argument destroys the other...the argument is...there is nothing written down about the more exalted roles of Mary in the accepted compendiums of scripture from both the Catholic and/or the Protestant perspectives that at least had some type of legitimacy of origin...say by an apostle or by the authorship of Luke the physician.

Had any of the apocryphal scriptures had mentioned Mary, that might have made for a stronger claim for their legitimacy!
