“Because he uses scripture and Catholic teaching ...”

Nope. Sorry.

The odd views of a poster who claims that Catholics are idolaters, that those who celebrate Easter and Christmas are pagans and that claims that the idea of church on Sunday is a man made tradition and apparently not either Christian or Biblical. Given that this is the point of view from which you view the world, why should anyone pay attention to your odd, often incomplete and often misread cut-n-pastes?

This coming from someone who posts pictures of cereal boxes, one trick ponies, and black pots and kettles as her/his response? Bwhahaha!!! You really do need to take a long, good look at yourself in the mirror.

BTW, the fact that Catholics are idolaters, that those who celebrate Easter and Christmas are pagans and church day being Sunday or ANY day and not EVERY DAY is not an odd view. I know you won't believe this, but there are very many people who believe those same things. We are called "non-Catholics".

Maybe it’s because I post scripture that shows that Catholics do things that scripture calls idol worship?

Hos 13:2 And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, and idols according to their own understanding, all of it the work of the craftsmen: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves.

Catholics do kiss their trinkets don’t they?

Well, it is easy to see where he would get those ideas.

Christmas and Easter are both celebrated during the same time as pagan celebrations, whom the Christians were trying to convert.

Jews celebrate the Sabbath from Friday to Saturday, and I doubt Jesus celebrated on a different day.

And prayers to Saints and Mary could be seen as idolatry.
