Why bother
- even many protestants do not take this guy seriously …Matt Slick and his website are totally focused on Catholic [and others] bashing - it is filled with mis-information and he cherry picks information from the Church to spin his version of ‘truth’ … he does this purposefully - he is not interested in truth … nothing you or anyone can do will change his mind … the best we can do for him is to pray for him to come to know Jesus in the fullness of the Christian faith - and trust in God to do the rest

YADA is right. CARM is a waste of time and energy. If you’re on there, you should be here instead, or doing your laundry…taking out the garbage…whatever.
He’s talking out his hat. The following sources will answer it for you, and all come from the Ask an Apologist forum.

Here are thee KEY WORDS
Not “to”
BUT “THROUGH”
ALL PRAYERS ARE AIMED AT CHRIST, BUT WE OFTEN ADVANTAGE THE RELATIONSHIP OF MARY AND THE SAINTS ON OUR BEHALF.
Is this necessary? NO!
Beneficial? YES
Because they ADD their own prayres on- top and in addition to our own.

Haven’t we concluded by now that these people prefer truth-twisting and bashing over actual search for truth and usage of reason? I mean, come on…

I would only one thing: Pray for them. That is one thing that would us all good.

How can one make accusations and not quote the actual source? All it does is spread lies to others about what Catholics believe.

Though not in the spirit of proving him wrong, but to share a far more enjoyable and productive practice of spirituality:
I really like the following youtube video → m.youtube.com/watch?v=kUdYeYy3NQA&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DkUdYeYy3NQA about Mary being the New Ark (starting around 5:30).
I especially like the last line at 7:15, “Reverencing the old ark did not subtract from the worship of God, but irreverence was considered an insult to God.”
Hope this helps!

Haven’t been on there for years, even forgot my username it’s been so long, they gang up on ye, they did me…
Even on earth people greet each-other with a holy kiss, genuflect, curtsy before earthly kings & queens.
The forget they are insulting the mother of Jesus who they say they follow… haven’t read the whole post, but i’m sure they are familiar with dulia hyperdulia and latria ?
If not remind them off it, not that any explanation suffices on there…

I have always had to defend my faith. Seems there is so much false understanding out there. I once had a discussion with a friend and he kept on and on about what the Catholics believe. I listened and then finally asked " Where did you get your info on the Catholic Church from?" To which he replied “On the internet, Duh!” 
I think satan is really busy dividing us.

Church Militant’s links have all the information you need. A common trend among certain Protestants is an inability to apply common sense to biblical texts. The concept of “worship” is a broad one in the Bible, and it would be a mistake to assume that the word always has the same exact sense regardless of context. God commanded Israel to worship him alone, but there are other instances of worship (e.g. Moses worshiping Jethro in Ex. 18:7) which are not contrary to God’s commandments because the word does not have the same sense all the time.
