Actually someone on this forum mentioned a friend who did believe he received her in the Eucharist… so that exists.
I think we could say that as Mother of the Eucharist, she plays a role in the miracle that happens at Mass, but it is her son we receive.

That was me. My friend believes he receives Mary in the Eucharist. He’s also told me that since Jesus was in Mary’s womb and received Mary’s blood, it is actually Mary’s blood that saves us. So very wrong.

I’m reminded of the scripture in Isaiah 42:8 where God says, “I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another.” We cannot give Mary the same glory that we give God or pray to her as though she were God’s equal. She is a created being the same as we are.

I really don’t think so. What I think is that some people do not have the same affinity for the Blessed Virgin Mary and feel that those who do are overdoing it.

Sirach 24:18,I am the mother(Mary) of beautiful love, of fear, of knowledge, and of holy hope; being eternal, I am given to all my children, to those who are named by him.19 “Come to me, you who desire me,and eat your fill of my fruits.20 For the memory of me is sweeter than honey,
and the possession of me sweeter than the honeycomb.21 Those who eat of me will hunger for more,and those who drink of me will thirst for more.22 Whoever obeys me will not be put to shame and those who work with me will not sin”
