your assertion Mary was given to everyone.

That was not the assertion. This is the second posting error (the first was posts 879 and 888 where it reads "Mary is not anyone's mother except for Jesus and His brothers and sister." and "she was given only to John." respectively) These are mutually exclusive statements.

The assertion is that Blessed Mary/Miriam is a mother to disciples that Jesus loves. As the Eucharist is not to everyone (although it could potentially be up to some point), so it is with the mother of "God With Us."

Μὴ δῶτε τὸ ἅγιον τοῖς κυσίν, μηδὲ βάλητε τοὺς μαργαρίτας ὑμῶν ἔμπροσθεν τῶν χοίρων μήποτε καταπατήσωσιν αὐτοὺς ἐν τοῖς ποσὶν αὐτῶν καὶ στραφέντες ῥήξωσιν ὑμᾶς

Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

Roman Catholics are some of the most poorly trained handlers of the Word I’ve ever encountered. Context seemingly means nothing.
