Which manner of adulation would constitute worship in Scripture, yet Catholics imagine that by playing word games then they can avoid crossing the invisible line between mere “veneration” and worship.

I agree on that point but i find it difficult to understand what the Catholic`s do and what they are just accused of doing.

I believe you are also right about it starting while John was still alive.

For instance they will deny that they pray to Mary but i have never been to a Catholic Church so i don`t know.

I do believe that they call every priest father, which Jesus plainly said not to do, but they have a very poor excuse for that.

But i am capable of only one thing at a time.

1 Cor 4
14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you.

15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.

It appears to me that the Catholic`s came by calling the Church leaders father through Paul and not Peter.

The protestants are also very good at playing the word game so we need to look in both directions.
