Prayers/worship offered to anyone other that God, regardless of intent, were often met with utter destruction.

Exactly so. And yet they don't seem concerned. Sad.

The children of Israel wanted a god they could control, so they collected all of their gold and made a calf.

RC’s want to avoid God, so they hide behind Mary’s skirt, not daring to peek out at what really happened throughout redemptive history.

I fear for their eternal destiny.

INDEED.

I can give the RC’s some . . . measure of something based on God’s super graciousness and the principle that ACCORDING TO ONE’S FAITH, SO BE IT UNTO THEM.

However, there’s tons of junk from the RC edifice regarding prayer and routes of prayer that I think God is more than a little disgusted with. In those areas, no amount of faith will mollify God’s displeasure.

One can have 100% faith that the train is going to San Diego when, in fact, it’s going to San Francisco.
