Nonsense the idea of a mother goddess, Catholics never see Mary as a goddess, but it seems that everyone would like to continue making such claims ridiculous to us.

God + +
Catholics believe that God transcends the human distinction between the sexes.
It's traditional and biblical to address God as he or she. However, if you wish, it would be wrong to address God as she or her.
Remember immediately after describing God as the Good Shepherd, Jesus describes God as a woman seeking the lost coin (Luke 15:8-10).
For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Section 239: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt1s …
+ + The Saints
The Blessed Virgin Mary (Jesus' mother earth) and St. Mary Magdalene, are not goddesses. The are only human beings who have said yes to God and gone to heaven.
With love in Christ.

I have no idea what we are asking here. Are you saying we do or do not have a goddess? Because we do not. We venerate Mary as the mother of Christ. That is not the same as the worship of a goddess.
