The last Mass that I was at (and it’s been the same for the prior masses, too btw), people would do some sort of curtsie thing before even sitting down. While doing so, they would look at a statue of Mary and make the sign of the Cross. Sure looked like bowing, or at least curtsying, to me

Pay attention I should only have to say this once. They were "bowing down" in the direction of the tabernacle. Catholics believe Jesus was being literal when He said "This is my body" That body is reserved in the Tabernacle. I am certain that you would agree that it is proper to bow down before Jesus correct?

“Pay attention - I should only have to say this once”....

Yet another use of sarcasm to support the Catholic position.
