Religion

All religions are defined by their official tenets..Mary is not, and never has been, defined as a deity. Like the saints, she is venerated, not worshipped, despite the ill-informed inclinations of a few. To say otherwise is like denying the Ten Commandments as essential to
Judaism because some of of its adherents choose not to follow them.

The explanation of the Trinity is rational in its analogy to substances like water. They are one substance, even though their physical forms differ, and are assigned unique names.
