That was not necessarily the case in the most literal way at the time the bible was written (or rather it was a bit more complex that that). Orthodox Catholicism especially became increasingly more polytheistic over the years as it presumably tried to maximize its appeal to the masses e.g. worshipping saints and holy relics (I’m sorry… “venerating”.. lol). The exact nature of Christ remained a massive controversy for hundreds of years.
- csydas 3y agoyes, that's why I wrote in the 2nd to last paragraph that this is just _my_ interpretation :) The sect I was a part of did not honor Saints, it instead focused on the JC boy.
