Re: Did You Know?
Yes, citing your sources is a good habit, because it shows you're not just making stuff up (hint hint).
I clipped the irrelevant parts out of that definition because they are irrelevant. We're talking about a VERB (to worship), so I posted the definition of the VERB, not the noun.
The OBJECT of a sentence can be a person, place, or thing. I had assumed that you had a working knowledge of English grammar from your previous postings, but I now guess they were uncredited cut-and-pastes (like your last).
I guess I confused people on their knees praying to a graven image in their Church with people "rendering religious reverence and homage to" something. I guess the priest who told me to pray to a specific saint didn't really mean "pray to that specific saint". Now I only have to go learn ancient Greek and Latin in order for you to explain the difference between "worship" and "worship". Gimme a few years, wilya?
