It can get to the point that instead of viewing her as our Blessed Mother, she becomes a showpiece to apply theological names and titles. In all honesty, granting this title to her would not make me view Mary any differently. Will this application of a new title help anyone live the Gospel differently?
Yes, these titles show different aspects of Mary, and what speaks most to one person might not to another.
The bigger problem is that whatever one's opinion on this title is, there have been plenty of saints who have written about it, and a lot of Catholics who would like it to be proclaimed, and the Pope dismisses it all as foolishness. It's insulting, but not surprising from a man who's already criticised orthodox Catholics as rigid and breeding like rabbits, refuses to condemn atheism and idolatry, and refuses to clarify his unorthodox opinions which he attempts to pretend are doctrine.

I hate to bring back a rather defunct topic, but something has just come to my mind.
Maybe his despise for this beloved and revered Marian title comes from the fact that close to Buenos Aires, where he was born and where he became prelate and archbishop, stands the South American seminary of the SSPX, and guess it's name... Our Lady Co-Redeemer.

Did you read posts of mine and others who quoted early Church Fathers, Saints and Popes? What is foolishness is to liken the Blessed Virgin Mary as one among the disciples. She is indeed Co-Redmptrix, just as Eve was part responsible for our damnation. Mary is the new Eve and Christ is the new Adam, both were necessary for the fall and both are necessary for salvation.

You can find stupidity and crazies anywhere, nobody here argued nonsense like that and therefore it should be dismissed.

Oh really? what other titles would you like to do away with? Just so I know where your coming from.
God Bless You
