My pleasure -- it's one of three things that I cannot stand about Catholicism: (1) deifying Mary, (2) Praying to saints/angles; (3) the tendency to elevate "Tradition" to a superior level than Scripture... {the "infallibility" of the Pope stems directly from #3, so to count that would be counting-twice.}

I believe all three of those are deadly traps of idolatry and even Jesus spoke against the last one:
Mark 7:13 -- "Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that."

Tru Dat.

Also in Revelation, when Jesus returns he finds a people practicing a form of religion but denying the Power thereof....
