Wow, if the standard for statues is going to be how you explain to your fifth grade daughter why this guy is considered so wonderful, Catholic churches are going to need some new decorations.

For example, that shining example of piety, St. Aloysius Gonzaga, who took a vow never to be in the presence of a woman if he could avoid it, and, when he couldn't avoid it, to keep his eyes fixed on the floor to avoid defiling himself by seeing a woman. I bet your fifth grade daughter will be really impressed with him.

Or St. Augustine, who demonstrated his new-found devotion to Christ by booting his concubine back to Africa where she never saw her (their) son again, so his mother could arrange his marriage to a girl he liked "as soon as she was old enough."

This could actually be a good thing. Goodbye kitschy graven images. Hello Jackson Pollock tapestries.
