Just as bad as abortion.

You really think so?

Catholics don't worship Mary, they venerate Her.

Yeah, right. Catholics don't worship the idols of Mary, kneel before those statute and pray to them, replace the Holy Spirit's roles with her. Nah, no worship there.

Catholocism even has to redefine worship to delude themselves into thinking they're actions aren't worship.

Nope. Catholics worship Mary -- Catholics PRAY to her. Prayer is a form of worship that is to be to God alone. Can you show me anywhere in Scripture where Jesus taught the disciples to pray, "Our Mary.....", or, "Our Saint..."?

CCC 969 says she holds a "saving office" and acts as an "intercessor" -- which, according to the Scriptures that the RCC claims to have written, there is ONE intercessor between God and men, the man Christ Jesus."

In order for Catholics to take advantage of her fantasy offices, how do Catholics "get the word through?" Veneration? Do Catholics "venerate" to God to be heard?

Many, many examples of PRAYERS to Mary. In fact, doesn't the rosary incorporate an appeal to Mary? Don't Catholics "pray the rosary"?

Seems like there's a whole lotta wrong packed into this whole Roman Catholic thing.
