when someone bows down to, lights candles to, and prays to Mary, it has all of the qualifications of worship.Ever bought your mom a birthday cake? Did it have candles on it? Maybe you sang something to her...?
You worship your mom.

Ah, well, one of the crew here in post 1371 wrote refer to the mother of Jesus Christ, but insist she is the mother, ergo preceding source, of God?
So these lot seem to think that moter = preceding source. Evidently they all worship their mom's as creators and hence when we use the term Mother of God, they think that mary somehow (in their warped logic) created Him

Besides, my mom is dead, and I don't pray to her either. I'll catch up with things when it's my turn and I see her again.
Catholics admit that they *venerate* etc Mary. Worship by any other name is worship.
The only way Catholics can justify their teachings and practice is by twisting the definitions of words and that is an intellectually dishonest way to debate or reason.
