I will; as soon as you name one Catholic who worships Mary as an idol.

Do you pray the Hail Mary?

I didn’t say anything about worshiping. All Catholics deny worshiping Mary. Accusing a Catholic of worshiping Mary is an exercise in futility and is unprovable as no one can mind read.

However, that wasn’t my point. The point is bowing down, and lots of Catholics bow down.

Bowing down is breaking the second commandment. God says not to bow down to images.

So, if you immediately equate bowing down with worshiping as a default reaction, then it really does reinforce our point, that it IS worship and that by bowing down, Catholics, along with everyone else, recognize that bowing down IS worshiping.

I asked first.

After you......

Because otherwise, it is just deflection to get it off topic and avoid answering the question asked of you.
