There's a lot of pressure from a lot of people to do all kinds of things.

So you admit that there are "a lot" of Catholics who currently worship Mary and who are putting pressure to establish this in Catholic doctrine.

I've never implied otherwise. Sure there are Catholics that do a lot of incorrect things, some gravely so. But there are also many Catholics trying to pressure the Church to change its views on abortion, contraception, homosexuality, divorce/remarriage, premarital sex, and clerical celibacy.

This is going to happen when you have over 1 billion Catholics spread throughout the world in every walk of life.

Doesn't mean that "the Catholic Church" teaches or endorses these things.

It's like labeling all Evangelicals as homophobes because of the "God Hates Fags" guy.
