I’m pointing out one thing — Baptists do not worship the Bible as a book, neither do Catholics worship statues. We both hold what is in the Bible as holy

No disagreement.

And I take you at your word that you didn’t intend to say anything more that the one thing you said. However, whether intentionally or not, I am suggesting that you put your finger on something very important that tends to divide, for example, Catholics and Baptists. In fact, it tends to get them shouting at each other pretty quickly. This thing, I would contend, needs careful and reasonable examination. But maybe that is too much to hope for in such a format as this.
