The Pope is the head of the Catholic Church on earth but that does not mean the Pope is the subject of Catholic worship. God is.

No, they don't worship the Pope. They are Christians; thus they worship God as Father, Son and Holy Ghost. But they believe in the Pope's infallibility and that he has some special connection with the Almighty.

Absolutely not, the Pope is just a man and no Catholic would do this, we worship God and Him alone, we do however give enormous respect to our spiritual Head.

We do not worship the pope, we respect him. We don't worship the saints or Mary either. We respect them as well. People who tend to believe those lies do so because to broaden their minds would require some effort on their parts.

No, we don't worship the Pope. We worship God. But we do pray for Mary and the Saints and ask them to pray for us in our hour of need.

No, absolutely not. We do not -- contrary to common belief -- worship the Pope, or Mary, or the saints.
We worship only God.

Only if showing an "enormous respect to our spiritual Head" a form of worship.

No, but some of them "worship" some of the designer clothes he likes to wear.

Nope. Nor the Blessed Virgin Mary, nor the Saints.
Worship is reserved for God alone.
