Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

Why the racist "joke"? Does that fit in with your Christian belief?

If you're happy for ungrateful illegals, scroungers, atheists and drug dealers to cross the border, good luck with that, and you could even let them have a spare room in your house..
Oops better think twice..
"Do not let unbelievers into your house or bid them God speed" (2 John 1:10 KJV)
"Do not yoke yourself with unbelievers, for what do light and darkness have in common?" (2 Cor 6:14)
Jesus said- "It is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs....do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces" (Matt 15:26, Matt 7:6)
"Ungodly...These men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed.." (2 Peter 2:12)
"Evildoers...They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city..but thou, O Lord, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision" (Psalm 59:6)

Catholic women are not dominated by men. That's what Karl Marx wants you to think. That's what radical feminism wants you to think..

Hmm i don't see any catholic women priests..

..Jesus didn't ordain a women to Priesthood. Ya wanna know why? He is our Priest He is a Son a husband a man.What makes you think you could change the order established by God?
The spirit of the world pushes that confusion and you help them

Jesus wasn't in the "ordaining" business, he simply wanted chums of either sex-
"You're my friends if you follow me. I don't call you servants, but I call you friends" (John 15:15)
and women had no problem with that..
"Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed his last. There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene and Salome, who followed him and ministered to him when he was in Galilee, and many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem" (Mark 15:37)

If you mean Paul, in context he was simply laying down some ground rules to tell some noisy women to stop yapping in the Corinthian church..

You do not have a full grasp of this doctrine, so kindly study it in depth, going all the way back to Genesis.

In a sense, Christian internet forums and home groups are "churches"-
“where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” (Matthew 18:20)
so are women to be banned from speaking there too?..

What woman did Jesus authorize to spread His Word and power to cast out demons?

Do you really think that Muslims will run to the US for help? Why do you think that?

P.S. Islam is a religion.

But it's ALSO a "Governmental system" that doesn't recognize any other governmental system.

None as far as I know, but on the other hand he never said women can't do it, and in fact many women on this board are spreading the word and long may they continue.
He always treated women with the utmost respect-

I think if Jesus didn't that in itself is saying we don't do it. It's not about who can. Women have incredible potential, talent and skills. Not about who does it better. It's about who did God create for that purpose. That's the person who's life is fulfilled when they do it.

The Priest thing. Thinking equality with men is doing what men do is wrong. Women's equality issues emerge from adaptation to change.. Failing to adapt results in environments that oppress . That I think was happening. Men and women should be able to do whatever role necessary in order to properly adapt to change. They have to switch that should happen . we've been going through radical change that wasn't adapted to properly resulting in a sense of inequality. I think anger and frustration have unbalanced women to radical unfitting solutions. You know like killing all males stuff like that . If men are supposed to be the head of the family any failure that caused suffering is something men should feel responsible for.

Because the Blessed Mother is the Mother of Christ, therefore Catholics are confused and treat her as a Goddess, which is in league with Goddess worship, such as Columbia, you can say Lady Liberty, (the Statue of Liberty) and there are others.

The bible is clear, according to the Holy Spirit there will be a tradition of veneration for Mary from that time untIl Christs return. Is your church doing that?

Yes He was. The word ordain. It just means ordered. I know that is too C'atholic

Islam is an Abrahamic, monotheistic religion centered primarily around the Quran, a religious text that is considered by Muslims to be the direct word of God as it was revealed to Muhammad, the main and final Islamic prophet.

An Islamic state is a government based on the religion of Islam, just as the US democracy is based on Judeo-Christian values. Saying that it doesn't recognize any other governmental system isn't true.

Absolutely!!! The Protestants are the ONLY ONES that properly relate to (the real) Mary, Jesus' Mom, and give her the honor she deserves.

The Catholics WORSHIP their "version" of Mary as their "Go-to Gal" when they want something from God (because Jesus wouldn't say "no" to his mom). Of course they LIE and say they don't WORSHIP her, but their actions indicate otherwise. I come from a family of Generational Italian Roman Catholics, so I know what actually goes on in Catholic Families.

The tree of life on the garden is a type of Mary!

Proverbs 3:18
She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.

Proverbs 11:30
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.

In Proverbs 3:15-19, the "she" refers to God's wisdom, as stated explicitly in 3:19.

In Proverbs 9:2 wisdom is not literally a woman who prepares a banquet.

The ark of the covenant is not a woman either but a type of Mary!

According to you, everything is a type of Mary. You're just imagining it!

The only true type of Mary is the golden calf.

Exodus 32:1-8, "When the people saw that Moses delayed in coming down from the mountain [with God's law], they gathered around Aaron and said to him, “Get up, make us gods that will go before us. As for this fellow Moses, the man who brought us up from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him!”

So Aaron said to them, “Break off the gold earrings that are on the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.” So all the people broke off the gold earrings that were on their ears and brought them to Aaron. He accepted the gold from them, fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made a molten calf. Then they said, “These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt.”

When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it, and Aaron made a proclamation and said, “Tomorrow will be a feast to the Lord.” So they got up early on the next day and offered up burnt offerings and brought peace offerings, and the people sat down to eat and drink, and they rose up to play.

The Lord spoke to Moses, “Go quickly, descend, because your people, whom you brought up from the land of Egypt, have acted corruptly. They have quickly turned aside from the way that I commanded them—they have made for themselves a molten calf and have bowed down to it and sacrificed to it and said, ‘These are your gods, O Israel, which brought you up from the land of Egypt.’”

When the people couldn't wait for God's words, they erected a false idol of gold (like the images of Mary) and worshipped it. That is what goes on in Catholicism regarding Mary. She is lifted up and worshiped, as commanded by the priests. Instead of worshiping God and going by His words, they falsely worship idols: the "saints" and Mary, the mother of Jesus and His siblings.

Yes the perfect arrangement is for the men to go out to work to earn the bread while the women stay home to look after the housework, the shopping, the cooking and the kids.
I and many other kids were lucky enough to have parents who thought like that, but some kids weren't, and they went off the rails because they hated going home to a cold empty house after school because both their parents were out at work.

Luke 1-48

For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

Does your Church hold to a tradition that recalls the Blessedness of Mary?
