You and your heretical cohort have said the same or something similar hundreds of times. Almost all protestants ridicule anyone who venerates the woman who was chosen by Christ to be His Mother. None of you give her the due she deserves.

Those are 2 different statements, we try to point out the lousy theology that leads to mariology, and that may sound like mocking to one in the grips of the false Mary that the Catholic church has designed

We do give her the respect she is due as a sister in Christ, a sinner saved by Gods grace and a faithful servant of God..

And all of you call her a sinner, no better than you. Let me say it here and now: I am not as good as Mary.

I guess you would know that better than we would..but I know that my sisters and I stand on the same footing before God that she does., a child of God through adoption, a sister of Christ .

Mat 12:48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
Mat 12:49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
Mat 12:50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother

God chose her, preserved her free from all stain,

That is fallible tradition, not infallible scripture... there is not one wit of infallible evidence to that point

and Christ, as a good Jewish son, honored her and his earthly father, Joseph

Indeed He kept ALL the commandments perfectly for us, including "Honor they Father and Mother"

I also honor Christ's Mother and his earthly father, Joseph.

If you "pray" to her or have statures of her you do more than honor her.. she is a false idol
