The Santoria in Cuba take idols of Babalu, then mold(in clay) RCC idols of Saints(Mary) over them made to look like RCC icons.. then fire and paint them.. And then they worship Bobalu with an "infectuous grin"...

Where are those practices prescribed by the Roman Catholic Church?

They don't proscribe this.. THATS the point..
The Babalu Aye ay.. know an idol when they see one..
