It is always so enjoyable when an anti-catholic tells ME what I worship and what I do not worship.

You are wrong, my friend. You have completely misrepresented the catholic faith - not that that would worry you.

I'll say it again...this has nothing to do with the original point of my original post concerning scripture.

I have heard your garbage many times before, and I find it trivial and quite boring - it has been debunked over and again - not that that would matter to you.

latria, dulia and hyperdulia all translate to worship. It is like the many greek terms for love.

When people started reading the Bible and questioning the Catholic traditions that didn't seem to match Scripture, these words were given different translations.

And I like this little blurb from Catholic.com "Though one should know it from one’s own background, it often may be best to simply point out that Catholics do not worship anyone but God and omit discussing the history of the term. "

I did not misrepresent the catholic faith. Next time it would be best to simple say "Move along, nothing to see here!" because you're not supposed to talk about it.
