CATHOLIC WORSHIP IN THE HOLY BIBLE

Similarity of Catholic alibi of worshipping the saints (they say they dont worship but honor them) and Hindus worshipping the cow hahahaha!

"Hindus don't worship cows. We respect, honour and adore the cow."

HOW DID/DO HINDUS WORSHIP COWS ?

Not more than 10% of Hindus do this today:

• They offer foods like roti (wheat flour tortillas) and gur (jaggery).
• Offer a necklace made of flowers and put a red dot (teeka) on cow's forehead.
• Recite holy prayers to honour cows.
• Offering cow's milk to God statues is considered lucky.

Do the Catholics recite prayers to their saints? YES.

There is similarity between the pagan Hindu worship and the Catholic worship.

ANOTHER ONE:

The symbolism discussed below includes major symbols that are common to all pictures and images of Shiva venerated by Hindus.

The Catholics also say that they venerate images hahahaha!

LAST

In a similar way, a Christian may kneell before a crucifix of Jesus and pray. The worshipper is not worshipping the wooden cross, but instead he is approaching his object of devotion, Jesus, through the manifestation of the crucifix. This is a form of idol worship from a Hindu perspective.

FROM: http://www.sanskrit.org/www/Hindu%20Primer/idols.html

Catholic catechism requires that members should have for themselves idols or images to worship:

“13. Is the worship of the saints confined to their persons?

 No; it extends also their relics and images…

15. 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, and we should pay them due honor and veneration.”

(Catechism of Christian doctrine, no. 3, p. 87)

 

CATHOLIC EXPLANATION OF IMAGE WORSHIP IS SIMILAR TO THE EXPLANATION OF A HINDUISM DEVOTEE

Indian man (5): Swamiji, there is a school of thought amongst Hindus that condemns idol worship and the concept of avatara. Would you kindly elaborate on these concepts?

Prabhupada: Idol worship, that is not idol. Just like if you worship your leader in some picture or some statue, that is not idol worship. That is actually fact. You show your respect to your leader. Similarly, when we worship the Deity of the Supreme Lord, Krishna, it is not idol worship. It is worshiping Krishna. The difference is, as we have already discussed, Krsna is Absolute. In the ordinary case the picture of your father and the father is different because it is material body. But Krishna, being absolute, His form, Deity form, and He, there is no difference. It is Krishna's mercy that He comes before you in the Deity form made of so-called wood or stone because we cannot see at the present moment except wood and stone. We cannot see. Just like I was explaining we cannot see even our father, the spirit soul. And how we can see the supreme spirit? So when we worship Deity, it is not idol worship. It is worshiping Lord Krishna, and the Deity is not different from the person. This is the idea. We have to understand. It is a science. Just like the holy name of the Lord. It is as good as the Lord Himself. Nama cintamanih krsnas caitanya-rasa-vigrahah purnah suddho nitya-mukto 'bhinnatvan nama-naminoh. When we chant Hare Krsna, this means Krsna is dancing on my tongue. Otherwise why these people are chanting twenty-four hours, "Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna"? If you ask them to chant some other name, "Mr. John, Mr. John, Mr. John," it will be not possible. He will be tired: "No more." But you go on chanting Hare Krsna twenty-four hours. You'll never feel tired. That is the proof that the holy name of God and God is nondifferent.

P.S. Catholics and Hindus share in common. both are pagans.

Conclusion: Catholics are pagans who also believe in God. It was prophesied by Apostle Paul in Romans 1:21, 23, 25 THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW GOD BUT CREATED IMAGES AND WORSHIP THEM!
