Every word of the New Testament was written by members of the Church, but I have just given my reasons I don't identify that church solely with the modern catholic church.
Catholics do not worship Mary or the Saints. Long ago, St. Augustine responded to these accusations by demanding those making that charge prove it. So, prove it. There are countless old Missals, new missals, you can go to any Catholic Liturgy/Mass and use the missals there to prove your charge.
why then do many Catholics kneel before, and pray to Graven Images of past "saints" and Mary?
were we, or were we not commanded by the very Peter you claim to be the first pope not to kneel before any man?
as well were we not commanded no to make to ourselves any graven images?
If the simple concept of intercessory prayer is too complex for you...
