To # 3088: Statues are fine. Kneeling to statues. Bowing to statues. Praying to statues. Those are the things God abhors.

Well, let's see -- no Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican or Lutheran prays to statues. Those are just items of wood or stone. Secondly, no kneeling or bowing to statues? Have you been to a Traditional Anglican church lately?

to #2988 I’ve fully answered everyone one of your questions

So, just clarifying since there were no answers to find, can one presume: 1. Since you had said you doesn't like the kneeling, the icons, the Crucifix, the incense and the Eucharist (True Presence of Christ) that is there in Catholic and Orthodox churchs and would go to any non-Church group. Yet, both Lutherans and Traditional Anglicans DO have these,
DO you not consider Lutheran and Traditional Anglican churches to be worthy for you to worship in, correct? Since they have the kneeling, the icons, the Crucifix, the incense and the Eucharist (True Presence of Christ) right?

2. Specifically would you support Kenneth Copeland's teachings (the guy who says that we are "mini gods") note that of course Kenneth is non-Catholic, so perhaps any teaching would be fine for an OPCer as long as it is non-Catholic? Is that correct? So, then question: WOULD you agree to Kenneth Copeland's teachings and would attend his sessions since they are non-Catholic?

When you start copying whole posts from hours and days ago, it’s time for you to step away from the keyboard.

And what exactly is the point of making statues in the first place?

Especially statues of people who you don’t even know what they looked like?

And why put them in churches and place candles to burn in front of them?
