“As H. M. Carson remarks, “The development of Mariology has been accompanied by an ever-increasing tendency to accord Mary a worship that, in much popular devotion, is indistinguishable from that offered to God alone. H. M. Carson, Dawn or Twilight? A Study of Contemporary Roman Catholicism (Leicester, England: InterVarsity Press, 1976), p. 128.”

Praise be to God. See here for more. The issue is consistency with Scripture in attributes, honor and balance regarding its subjects, while Catholicism has gone far beyond and above what is written of Mary, which is relative little but sufficient to honor her without making her the demigoddess who is almost a 4th person of the Trinity.
