I am speaking as an ex-Catholic. Yes, the Virgin Mary was the mother of Christ and pray to Mary. is the prayer "Hail Mary full of grace … Jesus tells us to pray in this way … Our Father, who art in heaven, there is no mention of prayer to Mary or the saints, thats just WRONG. There are many things wrong with Catholic teaching. On the one hand, I do not think anyone should be submitted to the pope or kneel and kiss his ring freaking, which is against what God says. Also, I do not think anybody calling parents, except that I am the only Father in heaven, so do not call the parent or priest or pope holy father, that's ridiculous, and again, against what God says. I do not believe in confession to a priest, who do not have a 'private line' to heaven as I do.I was told as a child, if that do not go to church every Sunday I would go to hell when he died. Well, now I know that 'hell': the 'serious' (thanks to the correlation strongs) that do not bother me at all.I have learned 10 times more on the Bible since I left the church I learned at all number of years they attended church regularly. I could go on and on with more, but I do not, your question was about Mary and I think I did answer:)

Have you ever read the Catechism of the Catholic Church? Here is a good starting point for questions you may have about the Catholic faith, because obviously has some serious misunderstandings.
1. Catholics to honor Mary, Mother of God. We ask your prayers, as other Christians asking for prayers.
2. Catholics do not kneel in worship to the statues. The biblical commandment against bowing to severe image refers to the worship of heathen idols. That does not condemn the conduct of the statues or pictures. God repeatedly told the Jews to fashion images taxed.
Peace be with you +

Since the Catholic Church compiled the Bible for their own use, it goes without saying that everything in the Bible is a reflection of Catholic beliefs and Catholic doctrine. Also needless to say that beliefs do not represent the Protestant biblical teaching, because the teachings of every Protestant denomination in conflict with the teachings of other denominations, the Bible and can not conflict with itself.

Yes we do bow down to Mary statues, but we do pray to Mary. Not that we do not worship Mary Mary is not God. However, all we honor Mary we give to Jesus. Mary does not have the honor we give to it and keep it for herself, but she gives it to Jesus. So when we honor Mary and pray to Mary we honor and glory to Jesus and to honor our Lord and our Mother, because the Ten Commandments says "Honor thy father and mother." I hope this helps.

Papa estatuas? Really. I am sure there must be one or some, but in all my years as a Catholic, I never once saw one or knelt before one.
Please learn the difference between reverence and worship. Then you will understand how Catholics regard Mary (yes, the mother of Jesus in the Bible), and the Pope on this matter.
I am no longer a Catholic and I do not condone or promote Catholicism, but I understand the difference.

There can be serious. Obviously you know nothing about the teaching of the Church which Christ founded on the promise of enduring truth. His church is the man these promises. Of course not.
Catholics do not practice idolatry and the Church prohibits the practice. We only worship God. Do not believe me, read the Catechism of the Catholic Church to find the truth about the Church's teaching. By the way, you will not find the truth of a fanatical anti-Catholic website.
The truth is that it is simply taking false witness against the Church of Christ. Repent of their sin, and sin no more. Catholics are not so stupid to believe that a statue is a God or the blessed mother of God is a God himself. Achieve!
In Christ

We kneel out of respect and honor. We venerate Mary
Yes, it is the same Mary. If someone gave birth without having sex first, I think that deserves some honor!

You can search and easily find the errors.
Mary Mother of Jesus is honored by the church and the Catholic faithful throughout the world.
We believe it is valid and that she was a virgin before and after Christ was born.
She shares his passion and death as well. Just as any mother would be concerned if your child was treated as badly as Jesus. Mothers suffer too.
kneeling in front of a stature or image reminds us of the person we are praying. We pray that Mary will take our prayers to Jesus. All our prayers to God, asking for a saint or the Virgin with Jesus to talk to us. All our prays en''ruega order for us.''
You can live as you want, but only Catholics pray to God the Father, His beloved Son and Holy Spirit. Do some brokers, we are free to do so, God wants us to pray through the angels and saints, and His Holy Mother.
Each family has a litany of family members who have died, if you kneel before her image, and pray for them or ask them to pray for you, your OKAY !!!!!

"This is the Mary of the Catholics as well as Mary of the Bible?"
No, actually the thought of Catholics are Mary, the sister of José
"If you are not in danger of Blashemy"
irrelevant, since the response to the first was yes.
'nor my praise to images taxed "
Good Catholics do not tax the use of images. An image is something that imposed worshiped as a god. Catholics are not worshiping the statue.
"Are they all wrong?"
No, knees, and not worship.
"Look here:"
I did. It's like watching a child explain the reasons why the more intelligent than adults.
And FYI, the smart-alecky "can you see Jesus?" Comment is really stupid considering that the Pope is holding the cross which is proving to work in it, almost as if Christ was his shield or banner. It is a literal image, this is how the masses begin and end.
"Look here"
I did. A quote out of context (which was in the middle of a sentence to mourn aloud), with more restaurants. If you really wanted to show that Catholics pray to Mary, who must cite where it says in the Catechism of the Catholic Church instead of an obscure Pope Quotes
