they don't
He plainly is. Can you read English?
They denied it over and over again for years here on Free Republic.
Non Catholic Biblical Scholors (and researchers) proved to them from their own belief systems writings that they do indeed pray to Mary.
Also found our was that more than one pope stated that salvation is available through Mary with no need to go to Jesus.
Mostly crickets were produced from those revelations but they now freely post that they do indeed pray to Mary.
