metmom. Not only in the Catholic mind but in the practices and teachings of the early Church. You don’t offer sacrifice so you don’t have Latria. We do. Stp trying to tell me what Catholic’s believe and practice.
Worship is more than sacrifice.
There is nothing anywhere that says that there’s not a sacrifice involved than it is not worship. That is, again, manipulating definitions. It’s just hair splitting to try to make those kind of fine distinctions.
Bowing down, lighting candles, and praying to someone has enough elements of worship for it to be legitimately called that.
All throughout the OT, people were condemned for bowing down to images and praying to others besides God. Do so at your own risk.
