Matthew 12:49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!

But do you think at the time Jesus said this, He had any idea His mom would become more popular in the RC Church then He would be?

If he had know, would He have been a little more careful how He referred to her? :-)

She's not. Don't say things you can't back up. We only discuss her here endlessly cause it is a point of contention.

To the average Catholic there is hardly a thought given.

Bingo.

Of course JESUS knew ... because JESUS knew our hearts ... that, often, we will value the creature over the Creator ... and the gift over the Giver.

Romans 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
