terycarl: "what an extraordinarily perverse interpretation of that passage!!!" What a pesky God, imagine that not letting you bow down to a statue! Or worship a wafer!

I've never known anyone who bowed to a statue....perhaps honors the person that the statue represents, but not to the concrete form itself.

The Eucharist is, indeed, a different matter. I paid real close attention to the Biblical passage where Christ Himself said "THIS IS MY BODY" and I took Him literally as did ALL OF CHRISTIANITY before the revolution.

I figure that if it is indeed His Body, I probably should bow to it....so I do.

...I took Him literally ...

You viper!

Worshipping a cracker carried around on the end of a stick is idolatry.
