Co means mutually and indicates an equality.
There's no equality between a copilot and a pilot.
Jesus didn't have a co-pilot in the act of Redemption. He did it alone. That's a dogma. So, your analogy is actually heretical. Do you know what 'alone' means? It's remarkable how many people are displaying on this thread that they reject a solemn definition and don't profess the Catholic faith.
Pope Eugene IV, Council of Florence, “Cantate Domino” 1441, ex cathedra: “The Holy Roman Church firmly believes, professes, and teaches that no one conceived of man and woman was ever freed of the domination of the Devil, except through the faith of the mediator between God and men,
our Lord Jesus Christ[/b]; He who was conceived without sin, was born and died,
ALONE BY HIS OWN DEATH LAID LOW THE ENEMY OF THE HUMAN RACE BY DESTROYING OUR SINS, and opened the entrance to the kingdom of heaven, which the first man by his own sin had lost…” (Denz. 711)
The key portion for this discussion says: “qui… solus sua morte” (i.e. who... alone by His own death) laid low the enemy of the human race, opened Heaven, destroyed man sins, etc. That is what the Catholic Church firmly believes, professes and teaches: that Jesus Christ
alone redeemed man.
So, did Jesus lay low the enemy of the human race alone or with Mary? The answer is He did it alone. This passage from Florence really crushes any argument. You also contradict the Catechism of Trent, which taught the same thing.
Catechism of the Council of Trent, Part III: The Decalogue – First Commandment – Thou Shalt not Have Strange Gods, etc. – Objections Answered: “True, there is but one Mediator, Christ the Lord,
who alone [/i]has reconciled us to the heavenly Father through His blood, and who,
having obtained eternal redemption, and having entered once into the holies, ceases not to intercede for us.”
Those who have a problem with the fact that Jesus did it alone (and not with Mary or anyone else) don't have a problem with me but with Catholic teaching. And those who include Mary where the Church does not, and where she herself does not, are false devotees whom she and God reject. These points, of course, are in reference to the act of Redemption itself. They do not diminish Mary's unique role in the overall plan of salvation.
