Jesus is the Lord given all by the father. Mary was simply a nice lady, probably made it into heaven, and has no other function in the Divine Scheme beyond being the mother of our Lord. Her adaptation as a Goddess is simply a conversion from paganism of the Great Mother with a thin veneer of Christian words.

I'm sorry, FRiend. You have effective disqualified this as a possibility in your post #5. It cannot be had both ways. If you cannot prove that Mary is not today Queen of Heaven and Earth, men and angels, then you cannot prove that Jesus is or was ever anything and therefore your hope of salvation and the answering of any of your prayers is in vain.

‘’Mary was simply a nice lady, probably made it into heaven’’. You are a Fruitcake.

“Mary was simply a nice lady, probably made it into heaven,”

“...from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.” Luke 1:48. Sounds like much more than “nice” or “probably made it into heaven”.

“and has no other function in the Divine Scheme beyond being the mother of our Lord.”

Except that 1 Corinthians 6:3 shows that all of us who are Christians will have other functions in the “Divine Scheme”.

“Her adaptation as a Goddess is simply a conversion from paganism of the Great Mother with a thin veneer of Christian words.”

Except no one here thinks of Mary as a goddess. No one. No Catholic I have ever met thinks of her that way. So, apparently, the “conversion” you speak of has taken place in your mind and really no where else.
