Isn't catholic Idolatry practice a direct violation of the commandment ?

You shall not make for yourselves an idol.

Yes Ravi, I agree with you that Idolatory is a direct violation of the commandments.

But what's key is to remember that Catholics do not practics idolatory.

This may seem like it's untrue, esp. when you see all the Statues in Catholic Churches & in homes of Catholics. But it's imp that one understands the approach to Statues.

We have already discussed this in lenght Here & Here.

Let me know if you have any further doubts.

Blessings,

Melody
