Then forgive me for any inaccuracy on my behalf! I do believe that Catholics do worship God in their own way of course! |

Dear Israfil, you stated this: "I see this as the symbolic gesture odf not feeling worthy enough to directly communicate with God and therefore on the behalf of the human they seek the saints." No, that's not the way it is. I pray to God all the time. Do you know of the Our Father? "Our Father, who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy name".... We defininitely believe in praying to God and do it regularly. Peace to you.

From what little I know, I believe that Muslim art has always utilized more designs and abstractions rather than modeling real life. Faces are off limits, if I am correct. I would be interested in knowing what type of art is allowable in Islam though. |

My dear Suzanne, you posted this: "You submitted a painting of Mothers of the Sea or something." Yes, a beautiful icon painting by my husband, the Maris Stella. If you feel so strongly against artistic works and the sinfulness of appreciating their beauty, perhaps it is a form of idolatry to have the avatar posted at your name?? Are you worshipping that avatar in some way by showing it to the world? Just a thought. God's Peace. |

Patty, You are entitled to your opinion about me either by what you assume or your comments on what I posted or how you interpret what I post all is the same, an opinion. If it were someone else than you I maybe would counter or if the base of your post was not entirely an opinion of your view on me I would counter. The only reason why I have choose not to for you is based on this......from the thread that you started on Idols. Which I posted a couple times there. After all what I posted to you; You submitted a painting of Mothers of the Sea or something. Um, and that is all that I am going to say about that. But, Hemdeallah you are still here. Bess. |
