A response to: Cardinal Toppo on a Proposed Marian Dogma
Perhaps the cardinal has a different definition than I do regarding the word "co-redemptorix." I agree with him and the others who have suggested that Mary is to be declared the Mother of All Humanity, [...] but in my lexicon no one but Jesus is the redemptor.
She did bring Jesus into the world, stood by him throughout all, but she is not co-redemptorix. Mary, certainly, from all that has been said, is the spring through which all graces flow, but Jesus remains the only redemptor.
