Other than the Pope, no person rankles Protestants more than Mary, the mother of Jesus.  Protestants see what looks like hysterical Marian worship in many videos of third world Catholic masses, hear Mary described as co-Redemptrix and the Queen of Heaven, and observe her being called theotokos, the very “Mother of God.”  If Mary is divine, then who needs Jesus?  How many Gods do these Catholics have?  Just how far have they sunk into the abyss of paganism?  So, what’s with Mary anyway?  Why does Mary matter?
