Gee, I thought that 'praying to' was worship!

NO ONE cometh unto the Father but by ME! (spoken by JESUS!) praying to anyone else is Idolatry.....plain and simple!

Te verb to pray enjoys a variety of meanings, two of which are immediately relevant: (1) to utter or address a reverent petition to God; and (2) to utter a fervent request to someone. I urge you to read the dictionary and to remember that expressions like praying to Mary and praying to the saints have been around a very long time. We don't use such expressions colloquially today, although lawyers still pray when they petition the court.

No wonder Jesus referred to us as stubborn and stiff necked.

This is one thing I figured would happen, many doing the "ostrich" or the "parrot", sticking their heads in the sand or parroting the same tired old arguments.

Without checking the image for themselves.

Read about it for yourselves, then make up your minds. Investigate for yourself.

You thought wrong. Prayer means, "to ask", worship means "extreme devotion to or reverence of". Worship can include prayer but prayer in and of itself does not necessitate worship.

Happy to clear this up for you.
