How does that play out? It is just a word game nares.. There is in practice no difference in the way Catholics treat Mary, in prayer or practice than they do Christ

There is, in practice,
no difference
in the way Catholics treat Mary,
in prayer or practice
than they do Christ.

EXCELLENT POINT!

Though,
I beg
to differ
on
an IMPORTANT detail.

A certain
PERCENTAGE
of them
appear chronically
to
SHOW
the
caricatured
pseudo-Mary
personage
FAR
MORE
HOURS OF WORSHIP,
EMOTIONAL INTENSITIES OF WORSHIP,
VARIETIES OF WORSHIP,
OCCASIONS OF WORSHIP,
GEOGRAPHIC, OBJECT ORIENTED
PLACES OF WORSHIP,
RATIONALIZATIONS FOR WORSHIP;
LINES OF TEXT OF WORSHIP;
CHURCHES NAMED AFTER MARY;
ETC.

What more EVIDENCE
does the
COURT OF HEAVEN
need?

FRiend claims:

We offer the Body and Blood of Mary on the Altar as our Ultimate Worship?

You know better, if you really were raised Catholic.

Proddies think PRAYER is WORSHIP. That we can PRAY to God and Worship Him also confuses them. That we can ask each other for their prayers and pray for them without WORSHIPING them also confuses them.
