So, how can someone say that a person is worshiping Mary by what he does in front of a statue then say that another is not worshiping a book by the actions around it?

As I have never once said anything close to a Hail Holy Bible full of grace. The dead cannot answer prayers and if they are in Heaven why would they want to see the suffering down here? I will not say that you will be denied Heaven for your beliefs that is for God to decide but I also will not allow your side to state that Christ started the Catholic Church, there is simply no scriptural basis for that contention. I believe that we are all brothers and sisters in Christ and the rest is poppycock used to inflame the masses. You merely need to remember that every church is run by humans and is fallible the only infallible source is the Holy Trinity and if all three agree you can be safe in assuming that it is from God. So I wish everyone the best and will not be joining anymore Catholic debates as I simply do not believe the same way. Mary does not have any hold on me other than being blessed to be the vessel through which Christ was born. After that she was just like the rest of us.
To All God Bless.

You are making a HUGE assumption.
Have you ever been dead to know what a dead person wants?

Hail Holy Bible full of grace.

When we say "Hail Mary full of grace" we quote the angel sent to gain Mary's consent to made Mother of God. Her submission "behold the handmaid of the Lord" is a model of Christian faith.
