Your problem lies in the definition of the word pray. It is a beseeching. Only in the modern sense have people lost that it was not always to God alone. The word has more than one meaning. I believe people of your ilk really are not understanding it?

NOpe...If a person would pick up a bible he would get an education of the word pray...

When the scripture says 'pray thee' which it does often, it is a petition for something...When the word pray is used by itself, it is worship...

And in Scripture bowing down and beseeching to anyone else in Heaven but the Lord attributes _____ to the object of their faith, and is called _____?

But too many RCs are too much like the pagans the Holy Spirit records as being the only ones praying to someone else in Heaven but the Lord.

"As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the Lord, we will not hearken unto thee. But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth [Rome being supreme], to burn incense unto the queen of heaven [the RC Mary], and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers [priests], our kings [bishops], and our princes [popes]... (Jeremiah 44:16-17)

They have their tradition, and will partake of the judgments upon it. As will we for that which is not of Scripture, thus more distance from Rome is required.
