It’s something I find kind of amusing about Catholicism.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
I mean to me the whole concept of the catholic religion believing this is one of the 10 commandments. Then simultaneously praying in front of crucifixes or Virgin Mary statues etc…
I mean Jesus you could half way go with assuming trinity and considering him god… but it explicitly says “in heaven” and doesn’t give any kind of “except of me”.
Actually something kind of funny to me, it says “in heaven”, “on earth” or “in the waters below earth”. Assuming christian theology… the biggest exception that comes to my mind… is things that are in hell.
