You are making the elementary error of equating the prayer of intercession with the prayer of adoration.

Only God is adored.

Only. God. Is. Adored.

ONLY GOD.

As we pray in every Catholic sanctuary all over the world over the last 2000 years:

Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to people of good will.

We praise you,
we bless you,
we adore you,
we glorify you,
we give you thanks for your great glory,
Lord God, heavenly King,
O God, almighty Father.

Lord Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son,
Lord God, Lamb of God,
Son of the Father,
you take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us;
you take away the sins of the world,
receive our prayer;
you are seated at the right hand of the Father,
have mercy on us.

For you alone are the Holy One,
you alone are the Lord,
you alone are the Most High,
Jesus Christ,
with the Holy Spirit,
in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

Catholic 7-year-olds have this memorized. It is that basic.

All the rest is intercessory.

I remain astounded at people who spout falsehoods about the Catholic Church who have no idea what they're talking about.

There is no intercessor but Christ.

There’s a list of stuff the Vatican teaches, and none of it is right. That prayer is fine though. Jesus is my everything. He’s the one who died and rose. He’s the one that sacrificed himself for mankind.
