If Catholics Want icons and images in the Church,
Ask the Priest for them, We are catholics we are not iconoclasts as Orthodox or as Protestants, Orthodox are hypocrits, they say that they have icons but not statues, that is hypocresy. And Protestans claim to obey Exodus 20, 4 And yet they enjoy photography, paintings and And watch computers, TV, and any sort of image displayers even when the comandment of the Old Covenant was against any image, not only God's image.
If Catholics want images of of The Lord, Our Lady, Of the Saints, or The Angels. Ask for them in your church, ask for a prominent place in the Church to place candles.
It is annoying to read this kind of childish arguments agains Vatican II, if we kept making the churches as they were made before we wouldn't reach the speed of growth of population and the churches would be far from the houses of the new settlements. In My country, where we are more than 100 million catholics more than 88% of population, our cities grow very fast and the only way to reach those new settlements with the Sacraments and the Parish life is by making churches with fewer resources, and that implies low decoration, but you can talk with the priest of your parrish and ask him to place an nice image of Our Lady or the saints and help him with money to built a respectable place for it.
But this is also necesary to remember that Vatican II didn't forbid images, and we also have to be clear that Images and Icons are not just for Decoration.
We Catolics are heirs of the Most wonderful decorated churches in the World we just need to take our skills to work and make again the greatest churches of our ages, We don't have rivals in making churches which take the bread away:
In my Country, the modern churches are poor in decoration but they are more numerous and reach more people, for example in Guadalajara the diosesis has more than 620 parishes not counting the chapels. And most of them were built less than 60 years ago, if we were not allowed to built more new parishes with few images we would have built less than half we did.
This small church is an example of the needs of our people, they built this parish to have the sacraments. This is a very modest church.
