It’s not idolatry in that the subject of the church, statue, etc. isn’t herself worshipped, and she’s not. Saints are viewed as vehicles of intercession for communicating prayers to God from those who recognize their saintliness, which has been proven through Church mandated protocols. So please don’t confuse statues and churches with the soon-to-be idols and church/library the obamassiah.

You're bowing before an idol.

You're praying before that idol and to the image it represents.

The Roman Catholic definition of saint is different from that of the New Testament. The RCC definition is a man-made definition not supported by the New Testament.

The prayers to these saints shows a lack of faith on the part of the Roman Catholic to address their prayers directly to God.

“You’re bowing before an idol.”

Not knowing me, you have no idea what I’m doing.

It appears that your statements are in effect that you’re right and the rest of the world is wrong. Discussing with a zealot of this nature has always been fruitless, so I’ll leave you with your convictions and the knowledge that it doesn’t matter what you think.
