Muslims hold a high regard for Mary.
Talk to an Iraqi Chaldean sometime. They will tell you that Muslims frequently left flowers by their BVM statues in Iraq.

We have Muslims visit our parish grotto all the time.
They call her Miriam.

Well yeah ... that was kinda my point. I expect that within the spirit of the new world order, the RCC will assimilate Islam some time in the future.

Yes very true. Catholics are what they refer to as the “people of the book”.

Do Christian evangelists use this affinity for Mary at all in trying to talk to Muslims about Christ? If they like Mary, maybe they would like to know what she says about her Son.
