Very nice church. 1) There is nothing wrong with placing flowers on a grave according to God, and 2) I'm not sure if that man kneeing is, in fact, praying to those at the front. It still wouldn't be like people kneeing before them.

You are not sure if a statue of a kneeling man indicates that he is praying but you are sure that a kneeling Catholic in the flesh is worshiping a saint?

There's nothing wrong with statues in the temple either. God commanded it in the old testament.

Yes, but why are there any statues in the church at all? This IS NOT a Catholic church.

Personally I LOVE those churches where you have to rope up, clip in, and use oxygen to get into the pulpit.

"Belay on!"
"ON belay!"
"Climbing!"
"Climb!"
"In the name of the Father, ......"
