i would replace 'religion' with 'church'.
i wondered if someone else would pipe in if i kept my mouth shut. and you did. but, yea, it seems pretty obvious why someone might think that mary was pretty important. i mean, when God sent the angel gabriel to her, he said "Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women" (luke 1:28 kjv). God thought that only mary was worthy of giving birth to His son, God made flesh.
come on guys, this isn't rocket science. if you weren't so busy trying to rag on people whose interpretation of the Bible is slightly different from yours then you wouldn't make such stupid, stupid mistakes.
