Apr 11, 2020 at 15:55 comment added luchonacho On this website there is an interest discussion of this in relation to the "Adoration of the Cross" ceremony held on Good Friday. Do we, Catholics, "adore" the Cross? If so, is this idolatry? (the answers seem to be Yes and No respectively, because of something called "relative latria", based on St. Thomas Aquinas)

typo for spelling of 'latria'? (in Greek it's λατρεια)

Aug 27, 2011 at 1:43 comment added Peter Turner She's the Queen of Heaven an Earth, the very next in line for praise. Although the gulf between her and God is as infinite as it is between us and God, the mere fact that she is different affords her a special place. Perhapse the line only seems thin because we aren't capable of giving God the glory He is due and we attempt to give as much as is humanly possible to each? In any event it's our problem as finite humans, not a theological problem.

worship was most certainly the wrong word here.
