[OLD REGGIE]

If you were to ask me, a Catholic, if I worshipped Mary I would respond: no.

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.

Many Protestants commit adultery. It is nonetheless neither charitable nor particularly accurate to say Protestants commit adultery or worse still, Protestantism is adulterous.

...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...

Define "so many" or "substantially reduce."

See? This is the new playbook.

Do you have any surveys that document the many Catholic who affirm that they worship Mary? I have lived my whole life in the Catholic Church and I have never met a single Catholic who worships Mary. If, by chance, you do meet such a one please inform him that such practice is condemned by the Church and contrary to our faith. It is dishonest, however, to present to the world as Catholic faith what the Church herself condemns.
