What kind of Christianity are you talking about? Ganymede, don't confuse your Russian Orthodoxy with other denominations. I'm for Protestants; they believe in direct communication with God, a pure relationship, no intermediaries. And they don't consider the Virgin Mary a deity or worship her. All controversial issues are resolved solely based on the Bible. It's simple and accessible. And you shouldn't judge early Christianity based on modern Orthodoxy and Catholicism, as they are as different as heaven and earth.
Please don't confuse Saints and Gods.
After all, a saint is not a God and does not have the same power as God.
And the Virgin Mary (also known as the Mother of God) is a saint.
She is not worshipped; prayers are addressed to her (P.S. not criticizing, just saying).
P.S. not Russian, but Russian. And it has a specific name - ORTHODOXY.
Ничего нет только у мёртвого - у живого есть хотя бы жизнь...
