Yes. You’re still saying we need to pretend she was “almost perfect” when that’s not anywhere in Scripture. Where does it say she was to be honored like Christ? Where does it say she was “close to being sinless”?
I’ve yet to see where Christ says any of those things.
Also no one is pretending. When she told Jesus to make water into wine at the wedding, did Jesus not honor his mother and fulfill her request? Or how about when they lost Him and He was at the temple, did He not honor His parents and leave to go with them? Also to the sinless part that is also indicated everywhere as well. Why would the apostles turn to her for guidance after Jesus’s death? If she was so full of sin, why turn to her? I would imagine that would be the worst person to turn too.
Let’s even go before that, how can she even bare Jesus in her womb if she was full of sin? Is Jesus able to come from sin or is it impossible for Him to be associated with it? It’s one or the other dude, in the Bible people were able to achieve this, so why couldn’t she? Or His father foster Joseph?
If you met Jesus right now don’t you think he would want you to respect and honor His mother? This is the issue with trying to figure out Scripture on your own, you claim to be able to source whatever but can’t seem to answer basic questions that are easily findable.
Not being a dick but are you sure you were talking to me?

Honestly, everywhere.
