I was not referring to the Trinity as polytheism. I was referring to the worship of Mary, and the God Factory by taking people and placing St. in front of their names. JHVH is not happy with that, as he wasn't happy when Aaron & friends made a golden bovine statue to worship. Not to worship any other gods than JHVH is one of the 10 main rules. Catholics break it, but they probably use lawyer-like speech to justify it.

This is the same impression I get from the Catholic Church as it seems to treat Mary and the Apostles and some of the followers latter in history in an idol sort of fashion.
I would like to hear a Catholic explain these points to hear their take on the subject as it does give the appearance of polytheism on the surface to me also.
