Catholics do not worship Mary or the saints or the Pope.

We only worship the Triune God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Where are you getting this mistaken information? Praying for you to get your facts right.

I don’t think Catholics (not one obviously) worship Mary.

At the same time, the dogma around her and the saints is not supported by Scripture.

But I’ll be the first to say the Catholics (and Mormons etc.) do lots of good works (at least since about 1800) even if their theology is messed up.

Worship - to show profound religious devotion and respect to; adore or venerate

venerate - to regard or treat with reverence; revere.
