Why do Catholics worship Mary?
Matthew 2:11 1611 King James Bible
¶ And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.

In the above verse they worshipped baby Jesus not Mary.
Jesus Christ is the only way to Salvation.
1 Corinthians 1611 AV KJ Bible
Chapter 15
1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Re: Why do Catholics worship Mary?
You first need to understand the difference between worship and prayer. We "pray" to the Blessed Mother...

They don't. Revere her as Jesus' mother, yes.

Catholics don't worship Mary, they have a tremendous amount of admiration and RESPECT for her in being the mother of Jesus.

Ask them why the fuck are they still worship idols.

"Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen." - 1 John 5:21

"They are altogether foolish and senseless; they all taught by worthless wooden idols." - Jeremiah 10:8

"Without are dogs and drug users, murderers, and idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

I Jesus sent mine angel to testify to these parts. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright morning star." - Revelation 22:15-16 Vulgate Bible

"Opposition to godliness is atheism in profession and idolatry in practice. Atheism is so senseless and odious to mankind that it never had many professors." - Isaac Newton

More like Lied to! Its a form of necrophilia - like most things in the Catholic synagogue of Satan! Jesus told us to pray and give praise to our Father only - the one true LIVING GOD!

Statues are a visual aid only , they are NOT worshiped ,they only bring to mind a particular saint when one is asking the saint to intercede in our behalf with God. As I see it the saints have graduated and we who are alive are students only.

There's a fine line between honoring and worshiping. Many Catholics(but not all) step over it--despite what the official RCC dogma says.l

Revelation 18:16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!

Revelation 17:4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:




Are these the colors in the Catholic church?

Mary is honored and respected but NOT worshiped! Worship is reserved for God alone. Sure we ask her to intercede with God, as we would a saint ,on our behalf, but as the mother of God she is respected honored and loved!

A saint is a living person not a dead person!

Ephesians 4:12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

Sadly Mary can't - she's doesn't work for AT&T, she's dead! She, like all who have died in Christ have not been resurrected yet. We will all be resurrected and return to our Father when Christ returns!
