Is a critical part of their religion, now, to understand what they do. Nowhere in the Bible does not say that the cult of saints or sinners to confess their sins on the other - if you're using a fancy dress or not.   That's why I am not religious, I go to church and read a Bible that says exactly what the translation into English. Nobody has the right to teach their own views about God and what he says and does.   Mary and the cult becausethey Catholics believe Jesus is God, and Mary was the mother of Jesus, so Mary is the mother of God. I hate to break the tone of my comment intelligently, but that's just nonsense. Mary was a sinner like everyone else was probably thinking when they started leaving the inn, "bunch L3 $ T @ l @ ^ D $, I am about to pregnant with her savior and you can not find the room! ? Well kick someone, I'm Mary dammit! "   He was only elected to bring the mortal world, that's all.   It is a holy game of chess, and Mary was a garment used for the king of the red team in check and send it running in fear behind his latest pieces, but that does not mean that the laborer deserves all worship -- just a pawn. She followed the will of God (which is so lucky). You do not mourn? WTF! That is not fair at all! it has to be the perfect child's mother, did not behave well, not good, not smart, who became the mother of the perfect child, which should be sufficient for their payment.

It has a string of prayer in their local church maybe? Same here ...   Nobody is (or at least should not) pray to statues. Prayers are said asking Mary to pray on our behalf. Same with other saints.

Good question. I never understood why the "Virgin" was never loved ...... it doesn't say anything in the Bible about worship .. or even that she remained a virgin. There were other children. When Jesus was in his synogogue forgot ..... because there were a lot of children to care for him and forgot. Praying to an idol ... or his statue is also wrong, the Lord idolitry is prohibited. And the Bible also says is a better person in his death at his birth, and wanted to commemorate and celebrate his death not his birth. No, no. Good question.

U.S. ask what we believe.   Catholics rarely pray in front of the statues in those days - and even if it is more common, not praying to the statue - because they were praying at a wall in the church because it not only became a wall in front of you .   Physical objects such as statues are not objects of worship or prayer in the Catholic faith. These aids in worship, which is perfectly in line with the Bible - Exodus 25 and 26, specifically.   Where do you get the idea that Catholics believe that Mary and Jesus did not die on the cross? As a lifelong Catholic, I have never taught anything like that.   And what makes you think we pray to Baby Jesus - as opposed to just pray to Jesus? That is another who, as lifelong Catholic, I have never been taught or encouraged to do.   My friend, I fear you have some misconceptions about Catholicism GRAVE. I suggest you learn a little about what they really believe, and before throwing around comments like "get non-Catholics."   Because it is clearly evident that much about that Catholicism is not "get" - but it is an easy solution to the problems, provided you have an open mind.
