"Rejecting the title of Co-Redemptrix is not simply a matter of language. It is part of an ongoing effort to strip the faith of its supernatural claims, to make the Church appear harmless to a world that hates the cross. The Blessed Virgin is the most perfect human reflection of divine truth. To diminish her role is to diminish the very reality of grace. When her titles are declared “inappropriate”, it is not she who is diminished, but our understanding of Christ, for every Marian truth protects a Christological truth."
