Hardly an assumption. Mary has been venerated since the Apostolic age. When did your religion come about, Christian basher?

"Hardly an assumption. Mary has been venerated since the Apostolic age."

There are no Scriptures that teach, record, demonstrate nor implore the veneration of Mary.
There are no sources before 100 ad that do this.
There are no secular sources that demonstrate it was done.

Accepting God's truth as revealed is in no way "bashing Christians."
