In #5 you say that people idolize it. In #8, in response to "nobody prays to the shroud", you say that we can't know this without being omniscient. So how can YOU know that people idolize it, unless you are omniscient?

"Any image of any created thing that is set up and prayed to, adored, etc. is an idol."

Are you calling Jesus a "created thing"?

“Are you calling Jesus a “created thing”?”

No, but the shroud isn’t Jesus.

Thank you for pointing out his comment in post 5:

"pilgrims will be able to bow down and idolize the holy linen cloth"

That was the post I was referring to when I made the "omniscient" argument.
