A lot of people, especially non-catholics, wonder about this.  Most other Cristian churches aren't filled with statues the way Catholic churches are.  They don't even have Christ on the cross on the altar, as if they what to hide that Christ suffered and died for our sins.

It's understandable to think that people are worshipping the statues themselves, when they see people kneeling and praying in front of statues, lighting candles and giving money in little boxes located near the statues. [/quote]

We like art. We comprehend symbolism. We don't worship it. Wow, so much misinformation out there!! Also, Catholics are NOT creationists in case you got that wrong too.

Catholic are not creationists. THey do not believe that God created the word in six days.  That's ridiculous.   Catholics believe that priests turn ordinary bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ by saying certain words over them.  [/quote]
