I think you are being argumentative when there was no need. I didn't mention Mary - you did. No where did I state that I could look into your heart.

As you brought Mary up - of course she deserves the utmost respect. I think all Christians think of her in that way. If you want to show your respect by kneeling to her, why not?

I go back to my original point - The church, not denominations but Christianity, was founded on Jesus Christ, not Peter. He is the Rock. Without Him would you be worshipping Peter?

That wasn't my intent. Sorry.

I had to follow this comment all the way back to 738, where you mention who we worship. Since many suggest we worship Mary, I read part of that into your statement (another one of those interpretation thingEys).

No - why would I worship a man? I believe that Peter is the Rock, which has been asserted and argued by others. I have no desire to repeat their points, and I'm sure you have read them as well. So, it appears that we must agree to disagree.
