You will never see a Lutheran or any Protestant bowing down to a statue of anyone.

This shameful lumping together of Protestants by RC's has just got to STOP, I tell you. It has to STOP! How LONG, O Lord! Why, more than 45 years ago I saw members of an outfit called the "Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America" kneeling to/before an image of the Virgin Mary. They sure seem to have thought they were Protestant, back then when words meant things.

lol. And I guess if you say you saw it, then it must be true, huh?

I prefer this sermon from an Episcopalian perspective, circa 2001...

THE ANNUNCIATION TO THE VIRGIN MARY
Luke 1:26-38
Mary's Place in the Church

Not a bent knee in sight, except before Jesus Christ.
