Please help me understand - I am not Catholic

If you pray to Mary, wouldn't that mean you are treating her as a mediator or a go-between between you and God?

If that is true (and please forgive me if I have perceived this incorrectly) what do you do with this bible verse?

1 Timothy 2:5
"For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,"

Again, i am just trying to understand this, because I have always had trouble with this.

Thank you:confused:

You might want to post this in the Catholic thread regular forum. The Chapel, which this thread is a part of is for prayer, and this is a prayer thread.

But I can say this...we have a saying "To Jesus, through Mary". which basically means and I quote -

"Catholics do not pray "to" Mary as an equal to God. They pray "through" Mary as an intercessor who prays to God on behalf of mankind."

I hope this helps.
