The line in 1 Timothy 2:5 that there is "one mediator" between God and Man, seems to suggest to some that Man also has but one advocate; but those who recognize that this is a false conclusion, know why Mary is Mankind's most perfect human advocate.
As you rightly note, many non Roman Catholics are discovering this and seeing that Mary is the compassionate heart of the body of Christ who ever prays for us sinners.
I liked hearing your point that in the time of Jesus, the most important woman in every man's household was his mother and not his wife. Reply to this
