Well, then - a lot of Baptists must know now, that you're full of sh*t.
Virgin Mary is literally worshipped in catholic countries in Europe. And I mean - actual "christian nations", like Poland - with over 90% of population being catholics, no attempts at legalizing gay marriage, and where Mary is frequently proclaimed by believers as "Queen of Poland". There are churches, shrines and other places of worship dedicated entirely to her. Maybe it's because polish catholics are more homophobic than you and are uncomfortable sucking Jesus' d*ck, so they chose to adorn a chick - who knows?
Nobody - including catholics - gives a f*** about your catechism. If catholics pray to the "Mother of God", place her at the centre of altars and the Vatican doesn't denounce it as heresy/idolatory, then yeah - catholics worship Mary.
Oh, well...since you put it that way...no.
