Obviously you have a Protestant sensibility and an aversion to sacramentals, relics or any object with tangible religious value, except the Bible itself.

It was exactly the above type of posted answers on the rosary,etc., that gave the Protestants so much effective ammunition against us.

"Effective ammunition?" They would find as much to mock in clerical garb or our churches, simply because they were different from their own. They were equally offended by, say, the Way of the Cross, which is about as Christocentric as any ritual one could devise. They were in fact offended by everything that distinguishes Catholicism from their faith and even despise what we hold in common. Do we read the Scripture in Church? Well,even that is wrong, because we do not treat the Scriptures as they do. I am talking about those Protestants we take the Scriptures seriously. Those that do not, you can placate by copying their modes of worship.
