Poly 179 – Worshipping Mary or Venerating God? (PolyPat 61)

Protestants sometimes accuse Catholics of worshipping Mary, but perhaps the problem is that there is a misunderstanding of what true worship really is. Worship involves sacrifice, the sacrifice of Christ on the Cross made present to us in the Eucharist. So, perhaps the problem is not that Catholics worship Mary, because they don't, but that Protestants do not worship God is the fullest sense of that word since they lack the sacrifice of the Mass.
