Charity is the FORM of God. “God is love.”

Charity is just another name for “sanctifying grace.”

When we have the theological virtue of charity, we participate in the very form of God. I.e., we participate in the divine nature.

Making this possible is the very purpose of the Incarnation.

So, okay. Mary participates in the form of God. She has been “divinized.”

NEWS FLASH: The same is true of EVERY BAPTIZED PERSON.

And yetyou don’t treat every person as you treat the demigod dress... So your post avoided the issue.
