The book itself holds no real concern for me however the words on the page are God’s instructions for me for Salvation and the way to live my life and grow in my knowledge of God. The church I go to the pulpit is off to the side as many are.

The statues in my parish aren’t for me either. They are off to the side too.
In fact, some Parishes don’t even have any.
So, how can someone say that a person is worshiping Mary by what he does in front of a statue then say that another is not worshiping a book by the actions around it?
Seems silly to attribute motive all the way around.
