Catholics do not pray to statues...we buy them, they are made out of cement, they, in and of themselves have no power to do anything but make good paperweights. Does Elsie have to post the pictures again??

they are nice pictures, but meaningless...you have no idea what was in the minds of anyone in the pictures. I've been there and done that, I've done it for over 70 years and not once, never, did I pray to the statue....prayed through Mary and the saints...yes

prayed through Mary and the saints...yes

Thanks for clarifying that you DO pray to dead people.
