This is the Bevis and Butthead approach to religion: Heh heh heh, he said “kneel to.” Despite the spoken emphasis on an internal grace of Faith, it turns out many of the Calvinists cannot see beyond or get beyond careless turns of phrase and the occasional fiberglass image of Our Lady.

Bow to statues. Kneel to statues. Pray to statues. Kiss statues. Cuddle statues. Bring statues home and tuck them in.

Take your pick. Enjoy them all. You will have to answer for each time you do.

When a non-Catholic has a finger-pointing contest around a Catholic praying to a saint in front of a statue, that non-Catholic has a problem, which I might have time to address. When a non-Catholic due to limited cognitive skills invents a situation that involved a Catholic but was not as she describes, I would expect that Catholic and not myself to pick the issue up. But when a Catholic says “I was just looking for a hairpin I dropped, never mind that” then I have a problem I very much want to address, because it concerns me directly. Hopefully, the issue is moot.
