What a deckles dodge! I am referring not to the statuary of Christ in your catholiciism temples but the statuary to Mary and the 'Saints'. But you likely knew that. BTW, thanks for posting in red, it is a lot easier on my macular degeneration and cataracts than that light blue which I don't try to read.
Have you heard the Gospel Paul preached?

What a deckles dodge! I am referring not to the statuary of Christ in your catholiciism temples but the statuary to Mary and the 'Saints'. It seems to me you did not read what was written, in the fifth paragraph, "Candles are lighted before an image of our Lord and before the saints. Catholics practice this not to honor the image itself but the one it truly represents. The lighted candle symbolizes a prayer offering where we present our petitions to the Lord and ask the saints to pray with us and to pray for us during our most dire need. This light, as it is kept burning, also shows our desire to remain in Gods presence as we go through our daily duties at home and in the workplace. "
