My comment:

The Roman Catholics are idol worshipers, not Christians. The Bible does not permit idol worship, like the Papal worship of the Queen of Heaven.

Jeremiah 7:18

The children gather wood, the fathers light the fire, and the women knead the dough and make cakes of bread for the Queen of Heaven. They pour out drink offerings to other gods to provoke me to anger.
