YOU asked if God told them to create an image -- He DID, twice in the OT. You never asked a question about praying TO an image.
Secondly, in The Church, we don't pray TO an image, we don't consider images to be God or God to be contained in them

You never asked a question about praying TO an image.That is an idiotc falsehood. Is the RC tactic to simply repeat a lie ad nauseum, hoping to win a point through exhaustion?
You even repeated my post, yet you deny the words in black and white.
Dr.E - Post # 921 "Nowhere in Scripture does God command anyone to construct a statue or graven image and kneel to that image in prayer."

Pagans didn't necessarily bow down and pray to the tree trunk itself; they prayed to what they thought was the spirit of that tree trunk.
So RCs have no defense when they say they don't pray to a statue. It's the fact RCs are praying to anyone other than the Triune God that condemns their actions.
