I would also like to point out to the person you were discussing St. Patrick's Day with that saints are not idols to be worshipped, and as a Catholic this is one of the hardest things to explain to non-Catholics. Not sure if they were referencing God as an idol or the saints themselves (or both).
I’m not sure either. I think they might’ve even meant deities or intercessors in general. Either way, it was incorrect.
Thanks for clarifying! :)
