"Venerate, worship, adore...

Six of one a half dozen of the other."

That simply proves your English skills are as weak as your understanding of Scripture.

I didn't insult you, so why did you insist on insulting me? I simply made an observation. I didn't challenge your intelligence or your Enblish skills.

All I know is when you bow down before a statue of a creation, you are engaged in the worship of that creation.

You may disagree with my observation or my conclusion, but it is as valid as your claim that you are not "worshiping" Mary when you treat her as some kind of god. It is an observation. The scripture is clear that you are not to make graven images and bow down to them. Now maybe you believe that particular scripture is not relevant anymore, but I do. God is the same yesterday today and forever.
