1) Dulia: which we give the saints. 2) Hyperdulia: which we give the Blessed Virgin. 3) Latria: this is worship given to God alone.

These terms are pre-christian. They were used in re Roman cultic worship.

Are you saying that that means there is something wrong and pagan about them? Or are you just pointing out that they didn't originate with St. Augustine?

I just read an article a while back about worship in the Roman home and it talked about these things.
