Ahhh Yesss...Like asking Charlie Manson if he was responible for anyone's death...

If you were to ask me, a Catholic, if I worshipped Mary I would respond: no. Are you implying that I am lying or do you claim that you know what I believe and how I worship better than I do myself?

I've come to the conclusion that the debate is not whether you guys worship things other than God, but the debate should be about what you define as worship...

In some of our eyes, you guys worship Mary...From a biblical perspective, it appears you guys worship Mary...

Where is YOUR line??? When does veneration become worship???

I would believe you. On the other hand if I asked "do many Catholics worship Mary" and you again said "no" (citing Catholic dogma) I would say you were throwing up a smoke screen, disowning so many "Catholics" you would substantially reduce the number of Catholics, generally claimed to be approximately 1.2 Billion.
