They pray to saints, and call it that.* "But that's not worship." Riiiight. What Would Moses Do?

If you treat saints the same way you treat God, or relate to them in the same way you relate to God, you can't call it worship when you do it to God and not worship when you do it to saints.

That's called a double standard.

it’s just 2nd nature—and considered normal reality.
