You iconoclast, you!
(That said, back when ‘culture wars’ were something that churches fought with one another over theology, rather than being about gays and uppity women, Oh boy was that sort of thing a flashpoint. Your more hardcore protestant groups suspected (not always entirely without evidence) that catholics were little better than idol-worshipping polytheists, with their heavy encrustation of saints, their Mary cult, and their torture-porn jesuses glued to every available surface.
It’s probably good that most of the protestant strongholds were separated by a considerable distance from the eastern orthodox, who tend to make the catholics look like calvinists when it comes to graven images…
And, of course, the always amusing incident in the colonies, where christmas was banned for its pagan and irreligious character.)
I generally try to stay out of those firefights, it just isn’t a winnable game; but there are reasons why trinitarians can never quite shake accusations of dubious monotheism, and why religions with lots of saints always end up looking, protestations of their Sophisticated Theologians aside, surprisingly like syncretistic polytheism in terms of folk practice…
