God is only one of the names given, and indeed is not a very good name because the word gives you an idea of one person, whereas there is no person, but only a presence, there is no mercy in existence, but not God. Once we understand that in our efforts to achieve radical change to the truth, then worship becomes irrelevant, and then the prayer is not of much use, so the only way we can reach the final experience is through meditation and love - the meditation when you are alone, love when they are together. Meditation is the inside of love, and love is the outside of meditation.

This is Catholic doctrine in its `s better, while non-Catholics can rage against it can not blame it` s pure logic.
(Greek doulia; servitus Latin), a theological term meaning the honor paid to the saints, for this honor Dulia or that is specifically designed to highlight those as St. Paul says is in the race and crossed the finish line having lived the Gospel values of an intense love and obedience to God, and thus should be considered as examples of this type.

Dulia? I do not remember if this is good. What is the definition of it?
I suspect that means more like 'stupid'.

Latvia is only for Trinidad. Worship in modern English. Worship in Latin.
Hyperdualia or supreme honor the Mother of God, the Blessed Virgin.
Dualia, honor the saints.

Way to go! I am constantly correcting the Protestants here who say that we honor the Blessed Mother that we give to God. Thanks for clarifying for them again!

Many Catholics have not been trained since childhood to believe that a clear proof of the falsity of the Catholic religion is in the honor that is paid to the Blessed Virgin Mary in the Catholic Church, and the countless prayers that are confidence given to her by the Catholics. At the same time, it is true that many non-Catholics, when they find out what are the true foundations of the Catholic devotion to Mary, are drawn so irresistible that ultimately become Catholics. For the truth is very simple and clear, and everything is contained in the following two truths.
1. Mary is the Mother of God (Luke 1:43). Catholics believe that God is not bound by any obligation to have a mother, I believe that He chose to have a mother and all that implies. He chose to allow his body to be formed in her womb (Luke 1:35).
He chose to leave to pursue the man as a little baby in the world. He chose to let him in their power within it, take him in her arms, guard him from danger, and teach what every child is taught to walk and talk and pray. He chose to give power over Mary that only love can give (Luke 2:51). Catholics believe that the choice of a mother, the Son of God chose to grant him power over his will that the love of a good mother exercises over a child's.
2. Mary is a mother to all men. Catholics believe that the Son of God chose to enter the world through a mother so the mother can accept as His brothers, all children of the sinful race of man. One example of how it should be honored and loved. This was prepared for motherhood at the request of all to suffer all forms of pain (Luke 2:35), therefore, the teaching of his sympathy for the suffering of their children. She had been his mother alone, would have saved him from his pain, because he had the power to do so and because he loved with an infinite love. He forged his first public request for a miracle (John 2:1-11), and was dying when he recalled that she had been intended from the outset to be a mother at all (John 19:27). Catholics, therefore, believe that Mary is so eager to help them, the problems of the soul and body, like every natural mother is willing to promote the welfare of their child.
The Catholics who recite rosaries are but an expression of his belief in these truths (Luke 1:48). They know that if one speaks of Mary to her divine Son in his name, there can be no doubt about receiving an answer to their prayers.
