any way you want to paint it ,adoring ,venerating,imaging,remembering ,and any other descriptions that the catholics may want to give,it is simply wrong to kneel in front of a statue,let alone ask for their intercession,come on catholics,you are better than that!

The Bible forbids prayer to any idol, and yet plenty of people pray to images of the cross. How many Protestants do you know how are probably wearing a cross pendant on a chain around their neck right now? If you're going to preach against idolatry, at least do it in a non-discriminatory manner and preach to both Catholics AND Protestants.

yes remember what happened when moses came down the mountain and saw them worshiping a golden bull,it is wrong to use graven images but catholics will alway have an answer ie its only a symbol etc,and the more you learn about it the sillier it gets.

Venerating saints, isn't worship. We pray for to saints, who we know to be in heaven to interceed with God on our behalf.
