Thanks for the quotes.

We, as Catholics, believe all that. None of that disavows what I have written. She is not as exalted as God, she is not God, not is she the object of worship. The Vatican authors were clear she can be the “subject” of worship, meaning what is discussed during the act of worship, the object of which is Christ.

All Christians have means by which they seek salvation. You can call them idolatry all you want, but it doesn’t make it so in a billion Catholic hearts.

We have a language barrier that has been in place since the Reformation. Good luck, and it’s sad. The means are different, but the object we all have is the same: the Trinity and Salvation.

>>not is she the object of worship<<

No they just venerate her right?

Venerate - to honour in recognition of qualities of holiness, excellence, wisdom, etc.- from Latin venerārī, from venus love]

Synonyms - adore, deify, glorify, revere, reverence, worship

[Elsie]

She is not as exalted as God, she is not God, not is she the object of worship.

You sure are a stubborn cuss!
