If praying to Mary is worship, then you'd be right.

It is.

And on the next day he got up and went away with them, and some of the brethren from Joppa accompanied him. 24On the following day he entered Caesarea. Now Cornelius was waiting for them and had called together his relatives and close friends. 25When Peter entered, Cornelius met him, and fell at his feet and worshiped him. 26But Peter raised him up, saying, “Stand up; I too am just a man.” Acts 10:22-26 NASB

8I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things. 9But he said to me, “Do not do that. I am a fellow servant of yours and of your brethren the prophets and of those who heed the words of this book. Worship God.” Revelation 22:8-9 NASB

The NT is clear...we do not pray or worship created beings.

We haven't even started covering all of the idols of Mary.

Well, if praying to is the same as worshiping, then I'm guilty.

I've said the standard issue prayers to both Mother Mary and to St. Michael, the archangel.

The Stations of the Cross was also new to me, but it's very powerful and highly recommended.
