You don’t understand the words you are using, and as a result, you only use them as weapons.
Mary is co redemptrix means: helper to the redeemer (christ being the redeemer), not “co-redeemer.”
Mary is advocate, meaning she advocates to Jesus, her Son, as she did in life at the wedding of Cana.
Worship and veneration are different. No one gives offering to Mary or bakes cakes for her. Many catholics ask her to pray for them. We do not praise or worship her - we hold her in higher esteem than humans still living, though, along with angels and the cloud of witnesses and all the heavenly beings inhabiting Heaven and sharing in God’s perfection.
Calm the hatred in your heart. God loves you snd created you to love him and to love others.

MOST Holy Virgin, I venerate thee with my whole heart above all angels and saints in Paradise, as the Daughter of the Eternal FATHER, and I consecrate to thee my soul with all its powers. Ave Maria.
MOST Holy Virgin, I venerate thee with my whole heart above all angels and saints in Paradise, as the Mother of the Only-begotten SON, and I consecrate to thee my body with all its senses. Ave Maria.
MOST Holy Virgin, I venerate thee with my whole heart above all angels and saints in Paradise, as the Spouse of the HOLY GHOST, and I consecrate to thee my heart and all its affections, praying thee to obtain for me from the ever-blessed Trinity all that is necessary for my salvation. Ave Maria
I understand perfectly, Don Quixote.
Consecrating one's soul, body, and heart and all its affections to the Virgin Mary is veneration, not worship, and consecrating AKA setting aside one's soul. body, and heart for a sacred purpose is not an offering by your sophist definitions, I'm sure.
Catholics most definitely refer to Mary as Queen of Heaven even though it's not mentioned anywhere in the entire Bible except as a BAD THING!
And I notice you did not address anything else I pointed out in the previous post besides the comment about Blessed Virgin Mary being the co-redemptrix, mediatrix, and advocate.
Please explain what this means-
Christian tradition has never recognized the right to private property as absolute and untouchable: ‘On the contrary, it has always understood this right within the broader context of the right common to all to use the goods of the whole of creation: the right to private property is subordinated to the right to common use, to the fact that goods are meant for everyone.
Who decides how to redistribute the private property of others according to Christian tradition?
And why do Catholics praise Mary in much the same way the Babylonians praised Ishtar AKA Ashtoreth? After all Ishtar was also the co-redemptrix, mediatrix, and advocate. Have a better answer than quabbling about the difference between worship and veneration?
She is the Mother of God, who crushes the head of the serpent. Why are you threatened by her preeminence above all angels and saints and yet obviously below God? Do you think that she who was chosen to be the Ark of the New Covenant would e at the same level as anyone who goes to heaven?
Do you think that the existence of a painting with 8 corners on a star is proof that catholic teaching about mary is idolatry? I explained that Mary is not viewed as being at the level of God but you persist. You clearly have no interest in understanding the very simple true teachings about Mary that are entirely based on biblical accounts.
You think a sign and a painting are proof that the church is wrong, as you proclaim something about Mary that the church does not teach.
You are deceived. And you enjoy your deception because it allows you to judge. Snap out if it.

Why can't you answer any of my questions?
Here's a painting of the Virgin Mary with an 8-pointed star on her chest,
It's the same 8-pointed star which represented the goddess Ishtar AKA Ashtoreth.
That same 8-pointed star is found on the famous sign "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada."
P.S. I don't hate you just because I believe you're deceived and I'm not threatened by your beliefs in Mary either.
