“Where in heaven’s name do you get that? Because the Church has said Our Lady’s apparitions at a place in Portugal called Fatima, we supposedly honor a “false prophetess Fatima”? The only things wrong about the woman named Fatima is that she was a Muslim and that she was the daughter of Muhammed (though that’s no fault of her own).”

Perhaps you need to read the Catholic sources I posted. It is VERY common for Catholics to pray to and worship both Fatima and Mary. Also this is being used as a bridge to Muslims - Mary and Fatima. You don’t have to like it but it is true.

The Catholic sources you posted do not tell Catholics to pray to or worship Mohammed's daughter. Did you even read them?

Heck, my ancestry comes from the two most Catholic countries around - the Philippines and Poland, and NO ONE I know of in my family, nor in any parish I attend, has ever invoked Fatima, the daughter of the false prophet Mohammed. I guess you just believe whatever you want.
