The problem with Catholicism is that it has redefined worship to mean something else to justify the “veneration” of Mary. Too many examples of catholic writings on Mary, the claims that we can only come to Jesus through Mary, the statues, the prayers, the kneeling, the claims that Mary sits on the honest summit of Heaven, etc all say Catholics worship Mary.

"...the claims that we can only come to Jesus through Mary..."

Another lie. Absolutely, totally false.

As to the assertion that "veneration" is really "adoration": Well, if you are determined to believe that all those who make that distinction are liars, then you are free to do so. It makes you an anti-Catholic bigot, however.

Know why I love Christmas? It’s the only time of the year protestants don’t make fun of Catholic nativity scenes, full of those awful Catholic statues to Mary! LOL.
