Mary......

I recently attended a funeral at a Roman Catholic house of worship and a couple of things, well really a lot of things, jumped out at me.

The oddest thing I witnessed occurred during the singing of the Ava Maria. A group of mourners placed flowers at the feet of a life sized statue of Mary. Pure idol worship, don’t care what the FRoman Catholics call it.

I went into one once where apparently she was the Christmas tree, all the gifts were laid at the feet of this montrous idol, about 3 times the size of a human, in the lobby.

They really don't think what they are doing is wrong because their church tells them it's okay. It doesn't matter what Scripture says about this stuff their church is their final authority.

BWAHAHAhahahahaa.....

So placing flowers on a parents grave would be “idol worship”?

ROTLMAO, the heretics here get funnier by the post.
