The Second Commandment forbids the making of images and bowing to them.

One can argue all day about whether what’s going on in a person’s head is really worship or not, but bowing is bowing and that can be plainly and objectively seen.

And there are plenty of Catholic prayers online, well known ones at that, which show that Catholic DO ask saints and angels for things, not merely to ask them to pray for us.

The internet is a valuable source and one that exposes the truth about what Catholics pray. They cannot snow people who can read for themselves.

The Catholics have changed the list of the ten commandments. They have taken out that command.

And you learned this in your hundreds of hours of Catholic School?

Can you explain why God told the Children of Israel to put the Seraphim on the Ark of the Covenant, and the Bronze serpent on the pole? Was God violating His own commandments?
