Statues in churches are an abomination.

Do you think pictures of your family that you have in your house are an abomination as well then? That is ridiculous.

They are merely like the pictures you have of your family and they remind you of those who may not be directly with you. Christ on a cross reminds you that He died for your sins and what His sacrifice was.

Where I think you could be getting confused is you think people are worshiping the statues like false gods and that is not their purpose.

IOW, RC's can do what the church says regardless of Scripture...

Bowing to Mecca five times a day, is no different than Catholics genuflecting towards a defeated Christ! It is a requirement of their faith. In their mind, it is different than setting up tables in the temple!

(By the way, is there a money jar beside the candle rack!)

Family photos!
