So how many of the children are documented, and what happened to them and their line?

You are obfuscating just as the Muslims do.

The question here is the deification of Mary among Catholics...not the bloodline of her offspring.

I was not there, I cannot answer the bloodline question.

But there is no doubt that syncretism has invaded many Catholic believers (i.e. the worship of goddesses over the Christ...in the name of the virgin mother).

Is Mary to be venerated...absolutely.

Is she a god...absolutely NOT.

“The question here is the deification of Mary among Catholics.”

Really? Then there is NO question, Mary is venerated, not deified.

“I was not there, I cannot answer the bloodline question.”

And yet the bloodline of her Son is clear as a bell. Odd how that works.

“But there is no doubt that syncretism has invaded many Catholic believers (i.e. the worship of goddesses over the Christ...in the name of the virgin mother).”

Well, only in your mind and the minds of bigots who refuse the truth.

“Is Mary to be venerated...absolutely.”

Yep.

“Is she a god...absolutely NOT.”

You are right and that is exactly what the Catholic Church teaches.
