I used the conditional "if".
I haven't seen what you are referring to - or I don't remember it. Would you like to post the post number so I can respond to it in more detail?
As far as being a Catholic priest and I'm not, that really has little bearing if the said Catholic priest is not teaching the doctrines of the Church. What matters is what the Church teaches, not what one priest teaches.
Now, again, I used the conditional "IF".
.To recap then, Jesus is the sole mediator between God and man. No other person in heaven or earth can take His place. The role of Mary or any other saint is to lead the believer to Christ. The subordinate form of mediation derives its meaning and efficacy from the Lord Himself and is not something the saints posses on their own...
As pointed out above, the teaching of the Church is clear: Jesus Christ is the sole mediator between man and God. No other person in heaven or on earth can take His place.
