Ought we to worship the saints and their holy images?


What is a saint? A Saint in the strict sense of the word, is one who is in heaven, and has been presented by the Church for the public worship of the faithful.

Is the worship of the saints confined to their persons? The worship of the saints is not confined to their persons, but it extends also to their relics and images.

Ought we to worship holy images? We should have, particularly in our churches, images of Our Lord, as also of the Blessed Virgin and the saints.

- Catechism of Christian Doctrine No. 3
pp. 94-95


Catholics do.

But as a Christian, NO. 🙂

catholics are christians
you dont, they do
that`s their way, you got your way leave it with that cause your way aint more right than theirs regardless how you put it

I'm only asking. It's up to them how they answer. Because I'm pretty sure they would say NO. And this certain topic doesn't matter to you, I know that. So why would I care what you say regarding it?

And if this thread is not necessary. Let the moderator close it down.

🙂

why should any one care for your questions about it?

I don't know if they would care for this or not. I am just asking. And this is a Christian talk... and you're out of here. You cannot ask me to stop asking about this thing. And you cannot ask somebody not to respond on this thing.

If I say something wrong, let the moderator remind me or warn me about this.

It's just that, not all KMC members have the same attitude as you have, fins.

Because worship is for God alone. 🙂

point is jury the reason you ask this is to get them to respond tht they dont only to tell them they are wrong cause in your deluted mind you think your way is the only right way.

That's what you call topic. That's what the purpose of the forum. You know that. I have a presumption that they are wrong in what they are doing... because I have basis... I have references.

It's up to them how they are going to rebuke what I am saying.

🙂

thats a load of crap, you just have an arrogant approach towards others christians who happen to see things a bit different than you. You are in no position, except in your own head, to lecture other christians abut their faith.

So shall we close this thread because its crap?

How about you just quit POSTING crap and then we'll ALL be happy.

And for at LEAST the 10th time. Catholics do NOT worship saints. Unless you're Catholic, which it's mighty evident you arent, you really shouldnt run around shooting your mouth off about something you know nothing about.

Finti, you shouldnt let this arrogant little boy bother you. He knows nothing about the real world yet.

And what about the Catechism of Catholics I've posted above? 🙄

Doesn't it say you worship saints and their relics and images? 🙂

And by the way, I'm not bothering him. Finti is so mean to me since start. I acknowledge that. 🙂

Finti is so mean to me since start.
its a difference in being honest than being mean.

Jury you can go look up as much Catholic doctrine as you want and post it. THat does NOT mean that every single Catholic follows it to the letter. You ignorance of ALL things regarding Catholism is astounding. Not to mention your rather baised and aggresive bashing of all things related to Catholism. Just WHAT is your problem? If you dont like the religion so be it, but you aren the deciding factor on what Catholic's believe. Why cant you accept that. You are a narrow minded bigot in my opinion. And Finti isnt mean to you, he simply thinks you are full of it, as do I. 😎

I am honest and truthful, I always know that.

And I am right when I said you are mean to me since start. 🙂 And you really are honest in admitting that, I must agree. ✅

Who's bashing who? 🙄
I know that this is the Religion Forum.
And I am posting facts.

If I did something not conformable with the Forum Rules, I acknowledge that. Let the moderator warn me and close this thread if that is so. 🙂

you really dont know what mean is then, but if you want me to be mean I can always apply

Its interesting how theres so much hostility here towards Jury - chill out everyone.

Anyway, this thread has gone all wrong, so closing.
