“I tell the traditional Christians that worshipping saints is not good; you have to worship God.” The Evangelicals are teaching her some truth and some ignorance at the same time. They have convinced her that veneration is adoration.

It is a shame that some Christian denominations choose to believe that some of us worship saints. These saints fought the good fight and they are our heroes. We try to immolate them as they had the same trials and tribulations that we have.

Adoration is for Christ alone!

Its a shame we have denominational chauvinism here period

Ive seen it from all sides

Plenty of other religionists working round the clock to destroy our culture

That is the clear and present danger

Not each other

Wait, why do you want to burn the saints?
im·mo·late
1. -- to sacrifice.
2. -- to kill as a sacrificial victim, as by fire; offer in sacrifice.
3. --to destroy by fire.

Adoration is for Christ alone!

Agreed.
