Ill put my two cents worth in regarding Mary. The Catholic religion is one of the few that have the concept of "family". Name another religion with a "female" persona? There might be one but I cant think of it.
Now why is this female persona so well accepted by catholics? Another generalisation, but the grass roots of this religion is very latin. (ie Italians, French, Spanish etc). These ethnic races place great value in the family unit. Cant have a family without mum (mom). Mary fits the bill very nicely. No shes not God, she just happens to be the mother of one.
Just my thoughts. Cant half tell the bible was written from a males perspective. I mean poor old females were a necessry evil rather than a 50% shareholder in the whole concept.
