Do the Proddys you speak for know the difference between an icon and an idol? Between worship and veneration?

OF course we know the difference...We also know that praying to a statue of Mary and asking that she give you grace, or that she keep you safe at night is not veneration...It's worship...

Any other questions???

If you know the difference between veneration and worship, that the Church teaches that worship is for God alone and that Mary is not God, is posting what you imagine Catholics do that violates the Church's teaching the only thing you have to keep you going?
