Keeping in mind that my religious background is Amish, a faith that fears and abhors the Roman Catholic faith, notwithstanding the indubitable fact that they emulate a good many of the features of the Catholic church they abhor- well, after that long, convoluted sentence, let me just ask this: A statue of anyone be it saint, secular hero or a commemoration of some sort is not alive, therefore cannot be insulted. Right? Shown disrespect, yes, but if that occurs the only apology due is to the community. Right?

What am I missing?
